Pirates Fireworks Paddle

Join us for a cool night paddle under the city lights on the Allegheny River as they watch Zambelli Fireworks light up the Pittsburgh skyline after the Pirates game! Previous kayak experience is required. Please arrive early to allow time to find parking and bring a flashlight or headlamp.

*The start of the fireworks may be delayed if the baseball game runs late. While the event is scheduled to conclude at 10:30 PM guides will remain on the water if participants wish to see the show. To best accommodate all parties, participants also have the option to depart at 10:30 PM.

Trip Leader: Our trained Excursionists and Volunteer Trip Leaders all have night paddling experience. They will guide the group along the river before the show. Once a good spot is found, the group will remain there to take in the fireworks!

Activity Level: Intermediate - We recommend participants have some paddling experience in the past. This does not need to be extensive, not does it need to have occurred during the nighttime. However, nighttime paddling has more variables so the previous experience will come in handy!
