Centennial Olympic Park’s 4th of July Celebration is the place to be on Independence Day. The Parks largest event of the year provides Atlantans a full day of entertainment. Arrive at the Park early to secure a good seat and enjoy fun for the whole family. Children’s activities are in the south end of the Park and include arts and crafts, face painting, performances, inflatables, stilt walkers and more. Experience various food vendors and pick up a souvenir from a unique merchandise vendor and the Visitor Center. Or just relax on the Great Lawn and splash in the world famous Fountain of Rings. Live, family-friendly entertainment takes the stage in the late afternoon before a nationally acclaimed, headline act performs. The evening culminates with an impressive fireworks display that lights up the beautiful, downtown Atlanta skyline and is synchronized with a special selection of patriotic music celebrating Americas Independence.

My family typically goes on a road trip vacation every year for the fourth of July holiday. This year, my dad put me in charge of coordinating a vacation for my mom and us (I’m 15 by the way). We live in Atlanta, Georgia and we want to travel somewhere nice. Certain thoughts came to mind like maybe visiting the Mississippi River or New York, but we didn’t know if these place had much to offer for me.
Any thoughts for destinations within a days drive of Marietta GA? Thanks.
Pittsburgh fires off fireworks from the rivers. The go up and you can catch them at eye level in Mount Washington, a short ‘incline’ railroad car ride form down below. It is so awesome.
Spend the day before at Kennywood Park, one fo the great amusement parks of America, with many rides on the National Register of Historic Places. Sleep downtown and enjoy yourself over the weekend eating great food at Primanti Brothers and seeing the Pgh Regatta, since the Pirates are out of town…You must hurry with reservations, though…
The kids will dig the Science Cneter next to Heinz Field and PNC park…and you can take a tour of the park since the Bucs are in FLA…
Have a good time, wherever you decide to go!
