The city is set to celebrate the Fourth of July with events at Balloon Fiesta Park. The festivities start at 3 p.m. and the city's fireworks show will begin at 9:15 p.m.

If you want to watch the fireworks and not have to deal with the crowds, consider visiting one of these other locations away from the park but with a decent view of the show:

  • Tramway NE, north of Paseo Del Norte

  • Sandia Pueblo Railrunner Station

  • Tin Can Alley rooftop, 6110 Alameda NE (open until 10 p.m.)

  • Along Unser near Pasel Del Norte NW

  • Vista Del Norte Park, 1005 Osuna NE

  • John B. Robert Dam

  • Louisiana north of Alameda NE

Please obey traffic laws and park in designated parking areas only.

To report illegal fireworks dial 311 and press 1.
