Kenwood Club fireworks set for June 29, 2023


NOTE: Due to the poor air quality in the area, there is a chance fireworks displays and other outdoor events may be canceled or postponed in the coming days. Please call the municipality or organization in question to confirm displays are going forward if there is an air quality warning in effect that evening.

The best fireworks display in the D.C. area will once again be presented by the Kenwood Golf and Country Club in Bethesda (although the club is technically in Chevy Chase). This year's Kenwood fireworks will be held on Thursday, June 29, 2023 (in case of inclement weather, the rain date will be June 30). The event at the private club is for members only, so do not trespass on club property. However, the fireworks are visible some distance around the club, and usually begin sometime between 9:00 and 9:30 PM.

You don't have to be part of the landed class to partake of the fireworks. A popular viewing spot is in the church parking lot across River Road from the club, where those-in-the-know converge on foot or by car. Earplugs are strongly recommended for children, or those with sensitive ears.

Other private fireworks displays in the Bethesda-Chevy Chase area this year include:

Bethesda Country Club - June 25, 9:00 PM

Columbia Country Club - June 27, 9:00 PM

Chevy Chase Club - July 3, 9:30 PM

Congressional Country Club - July 4, 9:00 PM

We heard a lot of fireworks seemingly coming from the direction of Kenwood last night (Wed)… Can anyone confirm that the show is still today (Thurs)?

3:46: I believe last night's display was at Columbia Country Club. Kenwood should still be on for tonight, unless it were to be canceled for air quality or something.
