GOVERNOR CUOMO ANNOUNCES STATE LANDMARKS TO BE LIT BLUE AND GOLD AND FIREWORK DISPLAYS ACROSS THE STATE IN RECOGNITION OF REACHING 70% OF SINGLE DOSE VACCINATIONS

13 State Landmarks to be Lit Blue and Gold

10 Vaccination Sites to have Firework Displays

In the Rochester area, there will be a firework display at 9:15 PM at the Dome Arena in Celebration of Reaching COVID-19 Milestone

 

Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced that landmarks across the state will be lit blue and gold on June 15 in celebration of reaching 70 percent of New York adults receiving their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. In addition to these lightings, firework displays will be held at ten sites across the state beginning at 9:15pm.

"472 days ago, it was impossible to fathom that 70 percent of New York's adults would have received their first COVID vaccination by this point. What felt years away has been accomplished in less than one," Governor Cuomo said. "As we celebrate lifting restrictions and resuming our reimagined normal, we also reflect on the hard work of New York State's essential workers and we remember those we lost. New Yorkers have always been tough, but this last year has proven just how tough they are. Congratulations, New Yorkers, on all that your hard work has accomplished."

Fireworks will be held at the Dome Arena (2695 East Henrietta Road / Henrietta, NY 14467) at 9:15 p.m. tonight, June 15th. 

There will be parking available on site at the East Henrietta Road entrance. The firework display will last approximately 15 minutes.
