The Top 5 Independence Day Fireworks Shows In The U.S.A.

4th of July Fireworks!  You start to get excited just thinking about it.  Well, at least I do.  I especially love Independence Day fireworks shows which are set to patriotic music.  The trend lately is to set them to Top 40 party songs, but I prefer to let my patriotic flag fly on the 4th of July.

Here in Las Vegas, you can watch fantastic fireworks shows at various casinos from vantage points all across the valley.  There are plenty of Independence Day celebrations you and the family can attend over the 4th of July holiday weekend too.  Click here for a list of this year's best fireworks shows around Southern Nevada.

It got me thinking back to all of the great fireworks shows I've witnessed in the past.  Back when my wife Becky worked for Caesars Entertainment, she planned the 4th of July "high roller" event at Caesars Palace.  They got the best, Fireworks by Grucci, to do their show, and it was always spectacular.  In fact, I produced the patriotic music program for that fireworks show for quite a few years.  The finale of those shows always got me choked up.  Definitely a crowd pleaser, and I'm sure there were a lot of Las Vegas visitors out on The Strip watching those shows as well.

There are other groups who can provide a great list as well.  Maybe you've been to one or two of these cities to celebrate Independence Day.  If so, let us know your favorite on Facebook or Twitter.  You'll find the links below.

We've also included videos of five great American Independence day fireworks shows from cities across the nation.  Check them out below!

I wish you and  your family a very happy and safe 4th of July as we all celebrate our independence!
