Fireworks! CELEBRATION
Fireworks!
Gas Works Park

This past March brought the sad news that, due to a $500,000 sponsorship shortfall, there would be no Fourth of July fireworks display over Lake Union. Within 48 hours, thanks to the generosity of Starbucks, Microsoft, and an untold number of Seattleites who simply couldn't imagine a fireworks-free Fourth, Seattle's one and only fireworks display was rescued. Tonight brings the glorious kaboom, rightfully hyped as "A Celebration For the People, By the People." Enjoy beer gardens, food stands, and, God willing, pristine sunshine till day fades and the sky explodes. (Gas Works Park, 2101 N Northlake Way, www.family4th.org. Noon–night, free.) by David Schmader

Seattle's "one and only" fireworks display? Uh, what about Eliot Bay?

The Elliott Bay one ended a couple years ago, dude. Ivar's couldn't hack the price.

That was pretty fun - even had Presidents of the United States there. Thanks Microsoft and Starbucks. I don't care how mainstream you are I love you.
