Sunset is at 4:55 pm. Traffic to MGM can be heavy, so allow for extra travel time if needed.
**The Fireworks start at 5:30 PM and occur every Saturday in November and December.**

**Tripods are allowed and necessary for long exposures.**

Drive to: P4 Garage Entrance, MGM National Harbor
MGM National Ave., Oxon Hill, MD

I usually park on P4 and take the elevators up to the casino level. Go through the door opposite the casino that goes outside. Walk towards the Ferris Wheel to face the river on the other side of the fountain. The fireworks will shoot to the right of the Ferris Wheel.
**Recently, the fireworks have only lasted for about 5-6 minutes.**

**Traffic can be heavy on the beltway, so allow for plenty of extra time.**

**If you don’t want to cross the bridge or are looking for alternative perspectives, you can park at Jones Point Park, walk south under the Woodard Wilson Bridge, and there is a fishing pier to see the fireworks to the left of the Ferris wheel. You do need a lens around 100mm (full frame equivalent). Belle Haven Park is another alternative.**

We can eat dinner at Shake Shack at the MGM Casino.

Bring Water, a Tripod, comfortable shoes, fully charged batteries, and empty cards
