Chapel Hill
4th of July Celebration
Saturday, July 4, 2009, 7 - 10pm
Community celebration with fireworks, live music, food, and fun!
Free entertainment and fireworks display in the University of North
Carolina's Kenan Memorial Stadium. Performers on stage from 7pm to
9:25pm. Fireworks scheduled to begin at 9:30pm. Recommended
parking is in the Craig, Dogwood and Cardinal Parking Decks off of Manning
Drive. Disability parking available in the Bell Tower Lot. Gates
5 and 6 on Kenan Statium's South side will be open with seating available on
the South side only. Lower and upper levels will be open.
Alcohol prohibited - no coolers, outside containers or food items
allowed. ***** Note for families with babies and young children:
Since the Chapel Hill fireworks are fired in the stadium, surrounded
entirely by stadium seats, which produce echoes and amplify the firework
booms, they are extremely loud. We found them to be much louder than
any fireworks display we have ever attended (since we previously had
attended open air fireworks displays, not in a stadium). We rarely
editorialize, but we thought we would mention that the stadium fireworks
display may be too loud especially for babies and young children's sensitive
ears.
