Grab your friends and family to watch the Manchester, MO Fourth of July Fireworks display from one of the best vantage points in town.  Bring your blanket or lawn chair and enjoy a fabulous view of fireworks by the City of Manchester from the parking lot of Manchester UMC! The entire community is invited and there’s plenty of free parking. Celebrate together in the West parking lot. Fireworks are scheduled to begin at 9p.

Concessions open at 6p and will include: hotdogs, bratwurst, soft drinks, popcorn, snow cones, and of course your favorite, Ted Drewes custard!

Proceeds from the sale of concessions at the 4th of July celebration will benefit the Early Response Team. In coordination with UMCOR, the Early Response Team goes into communities in the early days of a natural disaster to provide a caring Christian presence to the most vulnerable victims of the disaster.

Sign up to help the Emergency Response Team with the concession stand! Please note that anyone working in the kitchen must fill out a Consent and Release Form.
