Bar Harbor 4th of July Fireworks Are Cancelled

The Bar Harbor 4th of July Fireworks are officially not happening in 2020. At a recent Bar Harbor Town Council Meeting the Bar Harbor Town Council voted to pull their funding for the 2020 4th of July in order to reduce the tax burden on the Bar Harbor tax payers especially in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In a press release talking about the 4th of July Parade with a Twist, the Chamber clarified
