If you are looking for a place to spend the Fourth of July for your next family vacation, we recommend spending that time in Boston. Boston has some spectacular events on Independence Day. One of the best ways to experience the Boston area during this summer holiday is by booking directly with Thatch. Here is a rundown of some fun things to do for your family vacation in Boston for the Fourth of July.
July 4th Concert and Fireworks
A classic thing to do on July 4th is to watch fireworks. More than a million people gather near the banks of the Charles River. The concert starts at 8 p.m., and the half-hour fireworks show starts at 10:30 p.m. The concert includes Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture, which ends with drum rolls, real cannon fire, and church bells ringing throughout the city.
Boston Harborfest
This event takes place from June 30 to July 4th. It includes historical reenactments, live music, parades, and a fireworks display over Boston Harbor on July 1st. According to their website, this is a family-friendly event, which is “the largest family-friendly event in the country.”
Patriotic Poochapalooza
See a parade of patriotic pups at the Steps at Downtown Crossing. Dogs in the event could even win prizes in the following categories: Most Patriotic, Best in Show, Best Team, and Most Creative. You can visit a dog-themed village with food, free face painting, and caricature artists.
