Sharon and Stoughton Fireworks Info?


Travel Info
I want to go to the Sharon and/or Stoughton, MA fireworks tonight. What are the times for each? Where are they going to be (specifically)? How do I get there from the North?

Travel Tips
Sorry, can't help you with directions, but do have a suggestion for you. First, no matter what time anyone posts for fireworks, they will start sometime between 9:30 and 10:00 depending on how dark it is, and how organized folks are. I've yet to see it any differently outside Boston.

My suggestion is if you are traveling down, unless you have friends in Sharon, stop and go to the ones in Needham. They are, IMHO, the best suburban fireworks I have seen. You sit almost directly under them on the HUGE high school lawn. They are a combo of both the typical ones in the sky and wonderful lower ones that shoot off the ground, that usually includes some fun shapes.

I was going to say to let me know if you want directions, but since they are so simple I might as well post them. They will be more or less the same to get in the general area as Sharon, just a different exit. Depending where you are North you either want to take 93 S out of Boston, which splits at Braintree. Stay rt towards Dedham on 128. (Now depending where you are coming from it might be easier to shoot down 128 from the other direction, to avoid hitting Boston).

If you want to check out Needham, take the Highland Ave exit towards Needham, Exit 19. Go approx a mile and at the 2nd light you will see a row of stores w/Starbucks at the corner, then a video store, Trader Joes and a CVS. They have a large parking lot and I would suggest parking there. It's then about a 2 block walk to the hs. You can park closer, as the Supermarket across the street gives up and shuts down so folks park there, but trust me, it will take hours to get out. This has multiple exits and ways to escape lol.

If no one has info on Sharon, if you still want to go there, I'm sure if you call the local police department they can give you the exact info. But if you want to see outstanding fireworks tonight I highly recommend Needham.

Plus they not only sell food before hand, there is a pretty decent pizza/sub shop (Pacini's) and a Dunkin Donuts directly across from the HS where you can get food/beverages. It's a fun, easy time. And while I've never seen the one's in Sharon, everyone always says Needham is by far the best, and given how good they are annually I never bother exploring elsewhere!

Have a great time wherever you go!
