Commerce City
The Colorado Rapids are once again hosting fireworks on the Fourth of July, The Denver Post reported in May, with the club’s 24th annual 4thFest Celebration at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. Billed as the state’s largest display, the free, family-friendly event is holding back on additional programming this year. The nearby soccer game costs money, but fireworks can be seen all around the stadium at 6000 Victory Way. Hours: 5-9 p.m. Parking lots are limited (RTD bus and rail travel is encouraged) and open at 4 p.m. coloradorapids.com/4thfest
Denver
Civic Center‘s traditional Independence Eve will not return this year, but Elitch Gardens is offering its dusk fireworks display visible from the surrounding areas on July 4, preceded by free, downtown-visible displays at Coors Field on July 2 and 3 (following the Colorado Rockies games against the Cardinals). mlb.com/rockies/schedule/2021-07
