GRAPEVINE The city’s July 4th Fireworks Extravaganza has been approved to come back for its 40th anniversary. At an April 5 meeting, Grapevine City Council approved a professional service purchase for the reworks display from Illumination Fireworks. The display will be funded by the convention and visitors bureau and will not exceed $55,000 according to city documents. According to Andrew Schoer, senior account manager with Illumination Fireworks, the display will be launched from three dierent sites on the east edge of Oak Grove Park about 9:30 p.m. The multiple launch sites will create a panoramic display for viewers. “It’s going to be a really cool display,” Schoer said. “We’re shooting shells up to 8 inches, which is absolutely massive.” Although the display will be visible across much of the lake, Schoer said the preferred viewing angle will be from Oak Grove Park, west of the launch sites.

The show is expected to last about 18-20 minutes and will be synced to music. Schoer said Illumination Fireworks will be using special rework shells commonly used in Disney productions. “Internally we’ve been calling them ‘super premium’ shells,” Schoer said. “They are some of the best shells available in the commercial world”.
