July 4th Fireworks in LKN area -where to watch them (Huntersville: YMCA, to live) - Charlotte - North Carolina (NC) - City-Data Forum

Okay, I don't have a boat. I don't have a friend yet with a boat. I heard that is the best way to see July 4th fireworks in the LKN area is from a boat on the lake. Where does one go to see fireworks if you don't have access to a boat on the lake?

Queens Landing I hear has one nice setup every year, try them?

Yep, Queens Landing: Calendar (http://www.queenslanding.com/calendar_detail.html?id=25474&ed=1215144000 - broken link)

If you go spend the day there, you may end up meeting someone that will invite you on their boat. Or they might have a charter to view from the water.

Are they not doing anything at Birkdale this year? Or Kensington Place?

I don't know. I have never lived here in the summer before. I haven't heard about anything.

They normally do that is why I am asking. Just be ready to hang out afterwards or sit in traffic.

Hi
Just found this Davidson, NC - Official Website
Would seem that the Huntersville/Cornelius event has been cancelled?
Also-I assume the traffic for the event at Queens Landing will be dreadful? Is that correct?

I am new to the Huntersville area and would like to take the kids to hang out, have fun during the day and then to see fireworks. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I would be very careful about boating to see the fireworks at LKN.

Lots of drunk people + boats + dark + inexperience = disaster

I used to live on Norman and boated to see the display one year. I'd never do it again, and that was in 1990...
