2025 Red, White, KaBoom! Fireworks Show
We’re excited to bring Red, White, Kaboom! back to Ag Park for its 15th year—an evening filled with live music, great food, and an exciting fireworks display. The band, Freedom Road, will take the stage both before and after the fireworks, making for a full night of entertainment.
Guests can enjoy concessions, a beer garden, and stadium seating, making this a comfortable and family-friendly event.
New this year, a vehicle pass is required for all cars entering the park. Proceeds help support the many costs associated with hosting the event—including the fireworks show, live entertainment, venue setup, operations, and post-event cleanup.
Organized by the Columbus Area Chamber of Commerce, this event has become a meaningful tradition, offering our community a time to come together in celebration of Independence Day.
Plans are still underway, and more event features may be added—so be sure to check back often or follow the Red, White, Kaboom Facebook Event Page for updates.
Click the “Register” button on the right to purchase your vehicle pass, make a donation, or sign up to be a sponsor. Your support helps make this community tradition possible year after year.
