We are in the process of updating this Maui July 4th guide as venues announce what they’re hosting. Any event that has been updated for 2025 will be noted with a bold, red 2025.
Sadly, several traditions have been interrupted by restrictions in 2020 and then, the tragic Lahaina in August 2023. Lahaina is still trying to recover, rebuild and heal.
Fireworks shows on Maui
Public fireworks shows – TBD for 2025
For decades, Lahaina Town hosted the islands big fireworks shows. In 2024, town organizers decided it was too soon after the fires to host fireworks in West Maui. We are keeping an eye and ear out for potential events for 2025. So, stay tuned.
From the tour boat operators (see listing below) it appears that there will be a fireworks show in the Wailea area. So, if you are staying in the Wailea and Kihei area, check locally for fireworks shows.
