Finding Atlanta’s favorite fireworks.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

The random, late-night cracks and whistles lately remind me that July 4 celebrations are near, but what’s the best place to see, hear, smell, enjoy a real fireworks display? As in, the real ones, not the kind set off with a plastic lighter by someone likely to lose a finger.
The AJC created this handy list and map of July 4 events.
Better yet, a compendium of helpful fours: fireworks displays, events that don’t necessarily involve fireworks, fireworks you can legally use in Georgia (yea sparklers!) and safety tips.
All that said, it appears that fireworks will be exploding all over Atlanta on Friday. If you’ve got a favorite, a fireworks tradition, or a lead on a great spot to watch them, share down in the comments!
