Independence Day

What would you do? What would you do if you had a bunch of aerial fireworks, but no place to shoot them off in Twin Falls?

If you have never attended the parade, there are a few things to know, and if you have, there are some things to be reminded of.

Get ready for the heat this weekend as the hottest temperatures of the year so far will hit Southern Idaho leading up to Independence Day.

Whether you live in Twin Falls or the surrounding area, there's no shortage of fireworks displays and events in Southern Idaho to help you celebrate Independence Day in 2023.

There are amazing places to spend the holiday, but where is the best city to spend it, which cities should you avoid, and is Idaho a good place to enjoy the Fourth?

When it comes to being patriotic, which state has the most American pride, which has the least and how does Idaho compare?

Pack some comfortable chairs and a picnic blanket or two. Grab all the people you like and leave the boring ones at home to babysit the dog. From 4 PM to 11:30 PM fun lovers can enjoy the Firecracker Festival for $10 per person.

Whichever way you decide to go is your decision, but for those that are looking for a fun, good time, which states are the best to head to?

The pairing of the video with music from Creedence is just the cherry on top. This is America and it looks fun.

You have a lot of options for fireworks shows around the Magic Valley and you can catch more than one show since not all will be happening on the 4th of July.

The City of Twin Falls says this year the fireworks show will last about 20 minutes and be the largest show they've put on in the last 8 years.

There are a few things that are different for the Independence Day firework display in Twin Falls this year. Road changes are one of the biggest things to note if you plan on heading down to CSI for the firework display.

If I can’t have a Texas hot I’ll settle with mustard, ketchup and sweet onions.

Displays later in the year could be severely impacted.

For some reason we love it when stuff explodes in pretty colors and even better when it is set to music.

Idaho law currently shows that fireworks through the 5th is acceptable. I'm certain though, that the fireworks will continue into the weekend.

If you want to avoid the crowds and traffic at CSI, there are other places where you can watch the Twin Falls Fireworks.

If you are looking for something awesome closer to home there are a number of great events in the Magic Valley starting this weekend

Normally at the Magic Valley Speedway you get loud, exciting, adrenaline pumping vehicular racing action. On July 3rd you get all that and fireworks!

Idaho cracks the top 5 but sorry to say it’s not number one.
