Murfreesboro’s “Celebration Under the Stars” returns Thursday, July 4, 2024, at the Fountains at Gateway (1500 Medical Center Parkway, Murfreesboro). Live music featuring country artist Craig Campbell will begin at 7:30 p.m. from the Fountains stage, and the fireworks show will start at approximately 9 p.m.
Bring lawn chairs and blankets for music and picnicking on the lawn beginning at 5 p.m. Food trucks and restaurants at the venue will be open during the festivities.
“Celebration Under the Stars will be a wonderful, family-oriented way for Murfreesboro-area residents to celebrate America’s independence,” said MTE president and CEO Chris Jones. “Middle Tennessee Electric is always happy to support the communities we serve and particularly proud to do so on the Fourth of July in our hometown.”
The fireworks display by Pyro Shows will light up the sky at 9 p.m. For safety purposes, pets, alcoholic beverages, cooking grills and personal fireworks or sparklers are not permitted on the celebration site.
“Pyro Shows will set off the fireworks from the field near Gateway Island,” said Rachel Singer, Assistant Director of Murfreesboro Parks and Recreation Department. “The fireworks should be visible for approximately half a mile, depending on how cloudy the sky is that night, and any obstructions such as buildings and trees.”
