North Kingstown Fireworks and Concert Set for July 2

NORTH KINGSTOWN, RI—North Kingstown will celebrate America, Independence Day, music and fireworks on July 2 at the North Kingstown Town Beach.

The annual concert and fireworks show is a favorite annual event among locals.

This year, the performance will take place on Saturday, offering North Kingstown residents to enjoy a town fireworks show close to home and keeping the night of July 4 free to have a cookout or catch another show in a different town.

The concert begins at 7 p.m. and the fireworks begin at dusk.

The musicians are led by conductor Bethany Clarke-Bromley. Audience members are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets for seating. In case of rain, the concert and fireworks will be postponed to Sunday, July 3.
