McLean Annual July 4 Fireworks Show Set for Langley High School

Celebration marks 29th year for community holiday.

McLean's annual July 4th fireworks celebration will be held at Langley High School.

An estimated 5,000 to 7,000 people attend the community fireworks, now in its 29th year, that will be held on Wednesday, July 4, at the stadium at Langley High School.

The fireworks are sponsored by the McLean Community Center. Earlier this year, MCC officials were concerned that the turfing of the field at Langley where the fireworks are held might  the annual celebration. The MCC looked for possible alternative sites.

The grounds will open at 8 p.m. The fireworks show will begin at approximately 9:15 p.m. Admission and parking are free.
