While most people in the lower 48 enjoy their fireworks on the 4th of July, or even on New Year's Eve, Cordova does it up big for Iceworm and Iceworm alone. Lantis Fireworks puts on an incredible show for us each year on the last day of the festival. It is the best grand finale, and the only firework show Cordova has! The Iceworm Board works hard to collect sponsorships for the festival and for the Iceworm Fireworks Extravaganza. It’s our big yearly expenditure, and so incredibly worth it.
