Fire on the Water
At Oak Mountain
Date/Time: Sunday, July 3rd from 5:00 pm – 9:00 pm
Oak Mountain is one of my favorite places to ‘get away’ in the Birmingham area, and that’s no different on the Fourth of July! Enjoy time outdoors hiking, biking, swimming, or even grilling! Then enjoy the firework show once night falls. Make a day out of celebrating the 4th of July.
Independence Day 1776
At American Village in Montevallo
Date/Time: Monday, July 4th from 11:00 am – dusk
American Village is back open for business this Fourth of July! Take the kids and travel back in time together at this wonderful spot. Doors open at 11:00am and there are over forty events going on to celebrate Independence Day! Stay all day and then watch the fireworks at nightfall.
