Every Sunday evening in August, Animal Crossing: New Horizons players can enjoy a special summer Fireworks Show. During this seasonal celebration, fans have the opportunity to launch their own custom fireworks and win some prizes from Redd's Raffle, and while the start time for the Fireworks Show (7pm) is made quite clear in-game, some players may wish to know a bit more about when it ends.

To get right to it, the fireworks in Animal Crossing: New Horizons last for exactly five hours, wrapping up at 11:59pm on Sundays. This means that players have a good amount of time to watch the Fireworks Show with their friends and favorite villagers, many of whom will gather on the plaza in front of Resident Services, which is nice considering the temporary nature of this in-game event.

Indeed, this iteration of the Fireworks Show will occur only five times this year (on August 2, 9, 16, 23, and 30), and many players will certainly appreciate that each one lasts for several hours. This should give fans ample time to collect their boppers from Isabelle, of which there are four, see their custom ACNH fireworks explode several times, and generally enjoy the festivities.

For players that would like to attend the New Horizons Fireworks Shows in style, it is worth mentioning that the Able Sisters sell several items perfectly fit for the occasion on Sundays before the event begins. This includes various Kimonos, Yukatas, and Zoris, pieces of clothing that can often be seen at summer events in Japan, and many fans will definitely want to don these items at some point during the five hours of these celebrations.

One final thing to be said about the Fireworks Shows in New Horizons is that it is possible to use time travel, a technique revolving around changing the clock on a player's Switch, to experience one whenever a fan desires. This is not something that can be done with every seasonal event in the game, and it means that players need not be extremely concerned about how long the Fireworks Shows last. That said, ACNH fans that are adverse to using time travel should simply do their best to make it to the events before midnight on Mondays.
