Lance will bring wholesome family fun to Uptown Charlotte and beyond on the nation’s birthday. The fireworks show will be approximately 20 minutes long, and begins at 9:30 p.m. (weather and fire department clearance permitting). The show will be synched to a music track that will be heard exclusively on 96.9 FM WKKT, The Kat and played live at all viewing venues.
The Family Fun Festival at Memorial Stadium is free, with live music as well as games for kids of all ages. Sweetbriar Jam, a young and talented bluegrass band will play from 6:30-7:30 p.m. as well as Band of Gold kicking off at 8:00 until 9:15 p.m. There will be stadium and grass seating to watch the fireworks blast off at 9:30 p.m. so get there early for a prime spot!
Food and non-alcoholic beverages will be on sale inside the stadium…no food or beverages may be brought in. You are encouraged to bring a blanket or lawn chairs to take advantage of the field for viewing. Parts of the stands that do not have a view of the fireworks will be blocked off, but most of the stands will be available for seating for optimum viewing.
Everyone who comes is asked to bring non-perishable food to donate to Second Harvest Food Bank to help feed the hungry in our area. That donation qualifies you for a drawing for a list of prizes, including a $500 voucher to fly anywhere in the continental US on US Airways!
