Fourth of July and fireworks go together just as well as the red, white and blue, and there are few fireworks shows that light up Southlake as much as Stars & Stripes does. But if you find yourself outside of the city leading up to July 4, there are other fireworks shows around the metroplex where you can still experience the same patriotic joys that Independence Day brings.
Circle Park is bringing back the iconic Kaboom Town just in time for July 3. Rated one of the Top 5 Fireworks Shows in the nation by “USA Today,” Kaboom Town will feature an explosive 25-minute show that attracts more than 500,000 guests from across the nation. You’re sure to have the biggest blast at Kaboom Town.
