Even though Austin’s annual fireworks show was called off, some surrounding cities are still planning to go ahead with their sparkling spectacles. Most listed below specifically ask for spectators to maintain social distance for safety. These shows are subject to change, so check websites for the most up-to-date details. All are on July 4 unless otherwise noted.
