Nashua's 4th Of July Fireworks Are Canceled

NASHUA, NH — July 4 events across the country will not look the same this year thanks to the new coronavirus.

Many communities have been forced to cancel their annual Fourth of July events, including Nashua. Although Nashua's fireworks and festivities at Holman Stadium have been canceled, there are other things to do in the city.

According to the parks and recreation department, city parks, tennis and pickle ball courts, horseshoe pits, the skateboard park, and playgrounds are open. The city's basketball courts are open but limited to four players per court at a time.

The new Greeley Park boat ramp is expected to be opened in July.

The recreation department has a number of camps, clinics, and leagues open this summer. Check the department's guide here.

The pools are closed but a potential reopening date could be coming soon.
