All 3 Viewing Spots — Rehoboth Beach, DE
Rehoboth Beach Bandstand (2 Rehoboth Ave)
High crowd · Arrive by 6:00 PM · park · Free
Ground zero for the concert and a direct beach view; the Bandstand area closes to cars at 6 PM so come on foot or via shuttle and stay for The Funsters' post-fireworks set rather than rushing the exit. Show type: unconfirmed — verify before attending.
Beach near Brooklyn Avenue (launch area)
High crowd · park · Free
Brooklyn Avenue is the actual launch point, so the beach blocks right around it give the most head-on view; settle in before 7 PM when Surf/Henlopen avenues restrict to buses and residents. Show type: unconfirmed — verify before attending.
Rehoboth Boardwalk (north toward Henlopen Ave)
Medium crowd · park · Free
The full mile-plus boardwalk has sightlines, so walk a few blocks north of the launch for elbow room; after the show, vehicles north of Rehoboth Ave exit via Rehoboth and Columbia avenues, so park accordingly for a smoother getaway. Show type: unconfirmed — verify before attending.
