An article in the local newspaper listed the cost small towns around here pay for their July 4th fireworks display. The average cost was $18,000.

I saw one last night and I have to say it was very impressive. The program was a mix of drones and fireworks.

I think this got a big start in Dubai...there is a video of an awesome...awesome display.
Not fireworks...but can do things even more dazzling.

I spent most of the night comforting my dogs! I would opt for something more quiet!
