WOW! Watch the Fireworks from a seat on Ledge Lighthouse!

Event Details

New London Ladge Lighthouse
More info here

It's part of the City's Celebrate New London events on July 11. Our trip onto the lighthouse is timed to coincide with this year's fireworks extravaganza sponsored by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation — a southeastern CT tradition!

Our boat leaves from the Custom House Pier in downtown New London, just behind the NL Custom House Museum (across the tracks). Please arrive at the pier at least 15 minutes before we depart -- no later than 7:30.

It's a near 3-hour trip including 2 1/4 hours actually at the lighthouse. You may tour the lighthouse before the sun sets, then watch the largest fireworks show in Connecticut from seats on the lighthouse platform.

  • Please allow extra time to get to the pier -- it will be extremely busy on the waterfront, with Bank and State Streets closed for the day!
  • Attendees must wear sneakers or boat shoes (no sandals or flip-flops).
  • NB: There is no bathroom at the lighthouse.

Tickets are $100. Seats are limited to 35. We'll provide the wine & nibbles. Sign up now!
