Deb McCue, vice president of the Madison Fireworks Fund, confirmed that the event has been canceled for Saturday and will instead be held on the rain date, Sunday, June 28. McCue said it was a public safety decision to delay the event. "The threat was too severe and too late in the day," McCue said. "We couldn't take the risk of a huge crowd in the park."
Rhythm & Booms, "the largest fireworks display in the Midwest," is set to begin at 9:30 p.m. Sunday.
The Madison Mallards game scheduled for 5:05 p.m. Saturday is still on. The Mallards will also play at 3:05 p.m. Sunday.
