The 4th of July fireworks and concert in Boston is recognized around the country as one of the biggest and best celebrations of America's independence. Here's what to know about the Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular event Friday on the Charles River Esplanade.

Displays in Lodi Lake, El Dorado, Chico, Cloverdale, and St Helena have all been canceled following an explosion at the warehouse containing fireworks for these events. Seven people are still unaccounted for following the blast, causing the displays to be canceled out of respect for those affected.

A tradition since 1976, the Macy's fireworks display has been a beloved part of America's Fourth of July celebration for nearly 50 years and features a dazzling array of rockets that light up the New York City skyline in a show like no other.
