RESCHEDULED... again: Summerfest Big Bang Fireworks Show pushed back to Tuesday night



MILWAUKEE (WITI) -- Summerfest officials have again postponed their Big Bang fireworks show due to the relentless fog on the lakefront.

The fireworks show will take place on Tuesday night, July 1st at 9:30 p.m.

In a statement, Summerfest officials said: "The impending fog could make it difficult to provide viewers and visitors with the best fireworks viewing experience.  In addition, the safety of the Bartolotta Fireworks crews is paramount, and compromised visibility could contribute to safety issues.  In order to provide viewers and visitors with the best experience, the decision by Summerfest to reschedule the fireworks show will provide the festival with the optimum opportunity to put on the very best show possible."

The fireworks show was originally scheduled for Wednesday night, June 25th -- but Summerfest officials worried fog would cause visibility issues.

They pushed the show back to Thursday night -- but fog again led to concerns.
