On Saturday a fireworks show that organizers are calling the largest display from a bridge on the West Coast will light up the skies above the Manette Bridge in Bremerton around 10:15 p.m.

Thousands of people are expected to gather on the Louis Mentor Boardwalk, Whitey Domstad Park in Manette and at Evergreen Rotary Park to witness about $35,000 worth of fireworks being launched for the annual Bremerton Bridge Blast. Live music and food will be available at the boardwalk from noon until 10 p.m. and at Evergreen from 2-10 p.m. The boat launch and all parking lots will be closed at Evergreen, but all paid street parking will be free on the day of the Bridge Blast. Check out the Bremerton Bridge Blast website for more details about the event.

In addition to the Bridge Blast, there are many other events throughout Kitsap County to celebrate the Fourth of July.
