Events, Activities, and MORE to Help Plan Your Celebration

By Beth Marketos , Publisher's Assistant | Macaroni Kid Aurora October 13, 2022

Independence Day is right around the corner, and there’s nothing that says celebration like fireworks! In case of bad weather or other circumstances, such as fire restrictions, some shows may be canceled. Be sure to check before heading out to verify that the event is happening.

Celebrating at home this year? We can help you with that, too! Check out our Red, White, and Blue Eats, patriotic crafts, and fun facts below!

Note: Due to drought conditions and fire bans please check with each event before heading out to make sure it hasn't been cancelled.
