The best fireworks show in Indiana!

The CarmelFest Fireworks are one of Central Indiana’s most anticipated Independence Day celebrations — lighting up the sky with a dazzling display synchronized to music and viewed by tens of thousands of spectators each year.

📍 Fireworks Viewing Locations

These fireworks are so huge, they can be seen from anywhere around Carmel. If you want the best experience, here are some tips:

  • The closer you are to CarmelFest, the better!

  • Another good spot - Midtown Plaza (livestream on the big screen)

  • Stay away from tall buildings!

    • At Carter Green, make sure to move away from the Tarkington Theatre before the show starts.

    • Avoid 126th & Rangeline. City Center is the tallest building in Carmel and blocks your view from that intersection.

Tune in to Carmel High School’s WHJE 91.3 FM to hear the synchronized soundtrack

PRO TIP!

Use an FM Radio. Online streaming has a delay and will not sync up perfectly with the fireworks.
