No Fourth of July is complete without fireworks. Here are some of the best places to see them while celebrating our country’s independence.
Wawa Welcome America!, Philadelphia, Pa.
The nation’s first capital celebrates Independence Day with a week-long festival on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway.
Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular, Boston, Mass.
The Boston Pops Orchestra regularly draws half a million people to its culminating performance of Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture.
The American Pyrotechnics Association lists the event as one of the Top 10 fireworks displays in America.
Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks, New York City
The largest fireworks display in the country uses 50,000 effects for a 25-minute show watched by 3 million people.
Music City July 4th, Nashville, Tenn.
Music City is the best place for lovers of rock, blues and country music. The Nashville Symphony performs along with the fireworks, but you might be too busy dancing in a honky tonk.
