Fourth of July fireworks a no-go in La Jolla

The show will not go on in La Jolla this Fourth of July. After state and city officials told organizers this week that the planned fireworks display would not be allowed over La Jolla Cove for lack of a needed permit, Deborah Marengo, director of the La Jolla Community Fireworks Foundation, told the La Jolla Light on Saturday that the show is off because “we were unable to secure a location.” Organizers had said at a Thursday news conference that they were hoping to move the show to another site, possibly La Jolla Shores. Asked about the possibility of any alternative form of celebration, Marengo said, “I can only speak to the fireworks, and there are none.”

The show will not go on in La Jolla this Fourth of July. After state and city officials told organizers this week that the planned fireworks display would not be allowed over La Jolla Cove for lack of a needed permit, Deborah Marengo, director of the La Jolla Community Fireworks Foundation, told the La Jolla Light on July 3 that the show is off because “we were unable to secure a location.” Organizers had said at a July 1 news conference that they were hoping to move the show to another site, possibly La Jolla Shores.

Despite missing permit, La Jolla fireworks may shoot off from new location

La Jolla  Fireworks won’t be launched from Ellen Browning Scripps Park this Fourth of July, but city officials are still working with organizers to find another location for the La Jolla pyrotechnic show to light up the sky. The long-running annual event has been on hiatus since 2017 after organizers struggled to pay for the expensive display. The event was canceled last year because of the pandemic and the countywide stay-home orders. Still, event organizers from the La Jolla Community Fireworks Foundation were confident the show would resume now that those orders had been lifted. But that confidence was shaken this week when the city announced that organizers failed to obtain a necessary permit.
