This popular cruise is back for 2016. Come and enjoy an evening of great music by the Stardusters Big Band on the deck of the Princess as she cruises beautiful Lake Orion.
The Stardusters Big Band is one of the leading big bands in the metro Detroit area. Founded in 2005, this group of seasoned musicians performs a classic big band repertoire with favorites from such greats as Glenn Miller, Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Tommy Dorsey, Benny Goodman, Frank Sinatra, Maynard Ferguson and Michael Buble. The Stardusters, with its 18 members and two vocalists, delights audiences with musical offerings ranging from ballads, swing and dance band favorites to hard-driving jazz and Latin beats as well.
Last year this cruise sold out.

We’d like to make the 2016 Fireworks better than ever. So mark your calendar for Saturday, July 2nd 2016 because we’re planning to launch fireworks from both the east and west sides of Lake Orion in a spectacular display of awesomeness!
We would like to have a shoot platform where we had it last year and add a shoot platform on the other side of the Bellevue Bridge on the West side of the Lake. Both areas allow the larger 8 inch shells to be fired. One side will fire and the other side will respond!
This incredibly special show will be contingent on whether LOFA’s fund raising goals for the bigger fireworks display are met. So, please donate or contact us to volunteer.
Be part of the only Dueling Fireworks Display in Michigan!
Lake Orion Fireworks
The Lake Orion Fireworks Association strives to fund and facilitate the best possible fireworks show for Lake Orion and the surrounding communities. Annually more than 100,000 people attend the fireworks and associated events.
The 2016 Lake Orion Independence Day fireworks show will be on Saturday, July 2nd. We are all very excited to build on the improvements from last year including once again using the 8” shells in order to shoot the fireworks higher into the air and provide a greater circumference for the displays. With your financial support, we plan to present the first every Dueling Fireworks® display in the region.
However, LOFA is a volunteer organization and relies solely on the generousity of individuals, non-profits and corporations to fund the fireworks. Without sponsors the fireworks will not occur!
Please consider supporting the community and the fireworks by becoming as sponsor!
