The Fourth of July isn't so much July 4 as it is a weeklong celebration of America's birthday. That stretch kicks off this weekend and goes until Thursday, July 4, capped by Boston's dazzling fireworks celebration led by the Boston Pops.

Before that extravaganza on the Esplanade, there are dozens of other communities celebrating the Fourth of July in their own way — some with fireworks, some without. Patch has a roundup of more than 50 of the cities and towns we cover; tap the links below to find out more information.
