July 4th Fireworks

Each year on Independence Day, the Town of Valdese holds an impressive fireworks display on the football field behind the Old Rock School.

The 4th of July Firework Show in Valdese has been regarded as one of the most impressive firework displays in the area. With fireworks that burst at a lower altitude (which allows for a more brilliant display) and fireworks that contain a variety of swirls and explosions, the 4th of July celebration in Valdese is guaranteed to excite people of all ages. 

The exciting show begins at sunset and can be seen for several miles. The dashing furies of fire continue for more than twenty minutes as the community and tourists project their own 'ooohs' and 'ahhhhs'. The fireworks provide a fitting closure to a day full of activities including celebrations at the LPDA located on Laurel Street and the Trail of Faith.
