Many will be looking up Monday evening as the Ford Fireworks fill the sky on both sides of the Detroit River.
The annual celebration is marking its 60th year with more than 10,000 pyrotechnical effects. The show is slated to start at 9:55 p.m. and will last 24 minutes. You can stream the show above as it happens, or watch it on CBC Windsor's Facebook and Twitter.
Eager onlookers had already staked out prime spots along the Windsor waterfront as of Monday afternoon — hours before the show's start. Thousands are expected to watch.
Peter And Maureen Anstett are a couple of two countries. She’s American, he’s Canadian. They explain to me why they are camped out and ready for the show. <a href="https://twitter.com/CBCWindsor?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CBCWindsor</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/liveat6pm?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#liveat6pm</a> <a href="https://t.co/Zw2pz1e1Fr">pic.twitter.com/Zw2pz1e1Fr</a>

To make way for these crowds, many roads are closed downtown Windsor, including Riverside Drive from the Ambassador Bridge to Devonshire Road.
