4th of July Fireworks & Fun in Coastal Virginia!

Writer: Emma Ellis, REALTOREmma Ellis, REALTOR


Hey there, firework fanatics and patriotic party-goers! It's that time of year again when we celebrate the red, white, and blue in the most dazzling way possible—fireworks! As the 4th of July approaches, it's time to plan your ultimate fireworks extravaganza!

Williamsburg

Colonial Williamsburg will be having an entire day for patriotic fun! Few events ooze patriotism more than this one. Spending Independence Day here in Colonial Williamsburg feels like stepping back in time, and you almost get the feeling that Paul Revere could ride in at any moment. The exuberant tribute is a salute to the original 13 colonies. It includes a fife and drum march, a reading of the "Declaration of Independence," the tolling of the Virginia Liberty Bell and one of the most spectacular fireworks displays offered anywhere. Events fill the entire day; fireworks paint the night sky with colors of freedom. https://eventseeker.com/williamsburg-va/jul-4-2023/430205035-fourth-of-july-celebration-colonial-williamsburg
