4th of July: Fireworks & Events Around the Sound

In-person events are back! As we transition back to “normal” there are several local events and celebrations for the whole family to enjoy this 4th of July! Some cities were not able to pull off such large events given the timing of opening and the circumstances surrounding the pandemic, but there are some great options in both Snohomish and King counties! Check it out:

Tacoma’s Freedom Fair & Air Show will feature military and classic planes. It is a drive-in only event, so check the website for parking spot reservations.

Seattle

Seattle Seafair is NOT hosting an in-person Fourth of July fireworks show this year. The majority of the Seattle Seafair headline events will be virtual for the second year in a row. Despite the lifting of restrictions, there was not enough time to produce these very large events. More info: Hybrid Seafair Summer 4th 2021

However, instead of the traditional Fourth of July Fireworks show over Lake Union, Seafair will produce an hour-long TV special featuring past fireworks shows. The show will air on KING 5 at 10 p.m. More info: Seafair’s Fourth of July fireworks in Seattle, hydroplane races to be virtual | king5.com
