In honor of our nation’s birthday, Carrollton will be filled with music, a parade and fireworks the week of July Fourth.
The Carrollton Wind Ensemble kicks off the celebratory week with Patriotic Marches and More! at the Amp, Tuesday, July 2 at 8pm.
The Carrollton Jazz Orchestra performs American Jazz, at the Amp, July 3 at 8pm.
The Evening Sertoma Club’s annual People’s Parade through downtown Carrollton kicks off the Fourth at 10 a.m.
The Fourth’s evening festivities will begin at 8:15 p.m. with the Carroll Symphony Orchestra’s Sounds of Liberty concert on the front lawn of Carrollton Elementary School and culminate with the city’s fireworks show at 9:35 p.m. The fireworks show will feature primarily high-altitude pyrotechnics which can be seen from a greater distance. The launch site for the fireworks show, presented by the City of Carrollton, is across Ben Scott Boulevard from the concert stage and will be located between the practice football field and the baseball field beside Carrollton Upper Elementary School.
For those who cannot attend the Sounds of Liberty concert in person, Gradick Communications’ radio station KISS 102 will broadcast the concert live. Admission to each of these family-friendly events is free.
