Fireworks for July 4 (Night time only) - THANK YOU MS/Asobo!

It’s July 4 and America celebrates her independence. I just departed from KOKC and changed the sim to night and saw fireworks here and there along my route.

Very cool!!! Thank you Asobo/MSFS! Will try to capture it shortly.

Curious, have you seen them yet in sim? Are they all over the globe or just USA?

10PM local time?

Yes, 10 PM Local Time, July 4.

is that easter egg PC only?

No, I use an Xbox Series X for my flying.

Yes this is a nice touch by asobo, I was wondering if we can have something similar for Bangladesh and other countries to coincide with their respective national day holidays.

I took-off from KSEA last night right at sun-down and just as I was rotating the fireworks started, it was an awesome surprise. They actually look great and no performance hit. They show up all over above urban areas.

Yes, fireworks over New York at 10PM local time.


What the heck Asobo? It’s 2200 over Detroit and nothing. I didn’t even get small arms fire let alone fireworks.
