Redondo Beach to Host July 4 Party, Fireworks

Redondo Beach will once again host its annual Fourth of July extravaganza.

Independence Day is Thursday, and what's more representative of the Fourth of July than fireworks? Amateur fireworks—even the so-called "safe and sane" ones—are banned in Redondo Beach, so those who want to see explosions of light will have to attend a professional show.

Though in recent years, many cities—including Torrance—have canceled their fireworks shows, Redondo Beach's is still going strong.

The gates open for the annual community celebration at 2 p.m., and arts and crafts for kids start at 3 p.m. Other highlights include the Beach Sports Piano Run at 4:30 p.m., a free paddleboard experience from 3:30 to 6 p.m., the seventh annual Kids Freedom Parade at 6:30 p.m., and the Shari Puorto Band live at 8 p.m.
