Denver's skies will soon be sparkling in celebration of America's 249th birthday tomorrow.

Here are four spots to find July Fourth festivities:

✨ Denver's Civic Center Park's Indy Eve kicks off at 5pm today with live music, plus a market with food and retail vendors

• At 8pm, the evening program begins with a performance by the Colorado Symphony's brass and percussion ensemble, followed by "an electrifying LED circus spectacle set against a kaleidoscope of color, motion, and sound," per the event's website.
• The drone show — featuring 300 drones — is scheduled for 9:40-9:55pm. Civic Center's Great Lawn and South Lawn will offer the best vantage points.

🎆 Dick's Sporting Goods Park's 4thFest on July 4 includes what it dubs the "largest public fireworks show in Colorado and MLS" after the 7:30pm Colorado Rapids game against Sporting Kansas City.

• A family-friendly pregame festival, starting at 5pm, will include live music, a bounce house, a rock-climbing wall, mechanical bull, mobile ropes course, alpine tubing slide, trackless train and more. It's free and open to the public.
• There will also be a block party before the game on the south side of the stadium with a live DJ, food trucks, drinks and an LED wall livestreaming the Rapids game and other MLS matches.

🧨 The Colorado Rockies will put on fireworks shows at Coors Field following games against the Chicago White Sox tomorrow and Saturday

🎇 Elitch Gardens will pop fireworks at 9pm Saturday, after the park closes for the day.

The big picture: Dozens of dazzling drone and fireworks displays are planned across the state, so you won't have to travel far to see a show.
