What to expect on a fireworks nightFireworks nights are postgame shows that start shortly after the final out or the final whistle, usually within 10 to 20 minutes. Fans are generally asked to stay in their seats or move to a designated viewing area rather than onto the field. Shows typically run 10 to 15 minutes and are often set to a music theme such as a decade, a genre or a holiday.
There is no giveaway to collect, so arrival time does not matter for the fireworks themselves. Expect a slower exit afterward since most of the crowd stays. If you parked in a lot that closes at a set time, check the time against the expected end of the show.

Do I have to stay for the fireworks? No. You can leave at the end of the game, but most of the crowd stays, so the exit is quieter if you watch.
Are fireworks still on if the game runs late? Usually, as long as local curfew allows. Teams occasionally cancel for weather or a very late finish.
