The Sugar ‘N Jazz Orchestra and Rip & the Band Dogs are scheduled to perform in the City of Tonawanda as part of Friday night’s fireworks festivities for the Twin Cities.
The 12th annual Tonawanda-North Tonawanda fireworks display will begin at approximately 9:45 p.m. Friday, and will be fired from Tonawanda Island in North Tonawanda. A barge will not be used for this year’s display.
Spectators are invited to watch the 25-minute show from all area parks and downtown spots.

Niagara Street between Bouck and Gibson streets in the city will be closed to traffic and parking at 6 p.m. to accommodate the crowd. Any cars still on Niagara Street at that time will be towed at the owner’s expense.
The bridge to Tonawanda Island from River Road will be closed to all traffic from 9:30 p.m. to approximately 10:30 p.m.
