Celebrate the 4th of July on the Waterfront!
Next week’s holiday brings a star spangled celebration and red, white, and blue picnic to Baltimore’s waterfront district for an unforgettable day of community fun that caps off with a live BSO performance under the fireworks!
Here are all the ways to enjoy the day on the waterfront, from morning to night. With a full day of free, family-friendly events happening on the waterfront, you won’t want to spend the Fourth anywhere else!
