Yes, there is a #WaterFire tonight!
It's opening night for the 🇵🇹 Rhode Island Day of Portugal celebration and @pvd.fest.
Come on down and enjoy a beautiful night in the city! This is a partial lighting of WaterFire. The braziers in Waterplace Park will be lit around sunset (8:20 pm) and remain lit until 10 or 11 pm (the more people who come out the longer the fires will keep burning).
Thanks to @brownu and @ridayofportugal for supporting this event and our 2022 WaterFire season.
