To help fire up the famed festivities, free concerts at the Village Amphitheatre featuring the Joe Hall Band and The Woody’s will keep the crowd rockin’ with live tunes from 5 – 9:30 p.m. Then, after a special singing of the National Anthem by Mallory Green, the fireworks extravaganza will wow the crowd. Throughout the evening, attendees can also show off their patriotic pride by purchasing a small American flag for $1 in support of the Simon Youth Foundation, which helps at-risk youth achieve success through scholarships and other educational opportunities.

The fun-filled festivities don’t end with the fireworks finale! As part of its Movies Under the Stars series, Mall of Georgia invites guests to stay after the show for a free post-fireworks viewing of “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1” (rated PG-13) on a 70-foot big screen in the parking lot across from Dick’s Sporting Goods.
