4th of July Events, Fireworks, Parades, and More!
As we all gear up for the 4th of July events in the Greater Lansing area, my guess is after the year and a half we have had we will be celebrating as we’ve never celebrated before!
If you are stocked up on sparklers, pop-its, bottle rockets, and planning for Independence Day with the Family, fun places to view the fireworks, activities, 4th of July events, and more are all compiled here.
After all, 4th of July events, fireworks, and parades are almost synonymous, right?!
Although some events are canceled again this year, most are back and 4th of July celebrations are on – I can’t wait to cozy up with the fam to say “Oooooo” and “ahhhhh.”
Read on to plan for 4th of July events and fun happening around Lansing:
