Happy Fourth of July, everyone! A s you know, it has been another dry year and the danger of fire is ever present. Instead of doing the backyard fireworks at home, I would like to suggest that you attend one of the biggest fireworks shows in the state of Texas. Over 100,000 people are expected at the 33rd Annual Austin Symphony Orchestra Concert and Fireworks Show at Auditorium Shores today. The orchestra will begin their performance at 8:30 pm. The fireworks show will begin about 9:30 pm. Along with the sparkling fireworks, you will hear the boom of live canons.
If you are planning to drive to the event, then it is best to park north of Lady Bird Lake. For parking information, tips and maps, visit the Austin Symphony website. You can make your Fourth of July green by riding your bike or taking the CapMetro or riding the Dillo. Be safe and have fun!
