On Wednesday night, a surprise professional fireworks display over Boston Harbor shocked many residents. The event was part of the National Conference of State Legislatures' annual Legislative Summit. Following a sunset Boston Pops performance featuring Boyz II Men, an impressive fireworks finale surprised locals around 9:30 p.m. Many expressed frustration over the lack of warning, with comments reflecting concern for those needing to wake early for work. The summit gathered a wide array of politicians and public figures, including notable attendees like Leslie Odom, Jr. and Gov. JB Pritzker of Illinois.
"Why is Boston suddenly having the best fireworks I've ever seen on a random Wednesday," one user wrote on X, with a minute-long video of the spectacular display.
"Whoever is doing this huge firework display in Boston right now is totally inconsiderate of anybody who has to get up at four in the morning for work," another user wrote. "It's a professional firework thing going on. It sounds like World War II."
