Andover's 4th Of July Fireworks 2020 Postponed

ANDOVER, MA– July 4 events across the country will not look the same this year thanks to the coronavirus. Many cities and towns have been forced to cancel the annual Fourth of July events, including Andover.

In place of the standard July 4 event, Andover will celebrate the end of summer with fireworks on Sept. 4, the town announced.

Although Andover's fireworks were postponed, there are plenty of events online and elsewhere.

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

Due to the pandemic, counties or cities may adjust or cancel events at the last minute. Check your event before you go. Know of other events in the area? Post them on the Patch calendar or share details on our free Neighbor Post feature.
