(DKI) to provide pyrotechnics as a capstone to their annual Light Up Kittanning festivities in downtown Kittanning, Pennsylvania. The fireworks show will take place at 8:30pm.

We wanted to keep it simple, and since you’ll already be there drinking hot cocoa and eating pumpkin pie with Santa, the best view of the show will be along Market Street in Downtown Kittanning, PA.

Thank You, Sponsors!

A very bright and very loud THANK YOU from Katatumbo and DKI to show sponsors!

The day concludes at 8:00pm with a raffle to benefit the Wounded Warrior Project, and just like last year, Katatumbo will help BAE Systems honor this cause by launching a very special version of the Shockwave Start, consisting of a 21-salute rally. 

Salutes are the single brightest and LOUDEST firework in our arsenal.  Last year, neighbors from up to 6 miles away reported that they could hear the shells.
