Fireworks Near Me: Brookline's 4th Of July 2020

BROOKLINE, MA – July 4 events across the commonwealth will not look the same this year thanks to the coronavirus. Many cities and towns across Massachusetts have been forced to cancel the annual Fourth of July events, including Boston and Newton.

Brookline doesn't have its own show, and with Boston and Newton out of the picture it might be time to look for other ways to celebrate: from the back yard BBQ to online events in honor of Independence Day.

One event to tune into? Although the Boston July 4 Fireworks show was canceled, the iconic Boston Pops will still hold a performance online.

The event will air on Bloomberg Television, Bloomberg Radio, and Boston's WHDH-TV at 8 p.m. Saturday, July 4. Boston Pops Salute to Our Heroes will also be available to live stream at Bloomberg.com.
