The most spectacular Independence Day party and fireworks returns to Altamonte Springs
The City of Altamonte Springs is pulling out all the stops for the most spectacular party of the season. Red Hot & Boom is celebrating 27 years of legendary live music, food, family, friends and firework-filled fun.
This annual FREE gathering on July 3, has new hours this year, running from 5 pm - 10 pm, and the music has a strong local flavor, highlighting mostly local talent rather than national headliners.

This year's Red, Hot & Boom takes place onWednesday, July 3 from 5 to 10 p.m., with the fireworks scheduled to begin at 9:30 p.m. (weather permitting).
