Residents Celebrate Braintree Day, 4th of July Parade
Check out photos and videos of the event, including a time-lapse of the parade.
BRAINTREE, MA — Saturday was a celebration so big in Braintree that it needed to be for two events.
The annual 4th of July parade and Braintree Day were held this weekend. Residents started the day with one of the biggest parades around, and then went to the high school for the food truck rodeo, live music, and more.
The day ended with about 1,300 fireworks lighting up the sky in what was promoted as one of the biggest firework shows south of Boston.
