July 4th Fireworks: Where to Watch

Cities throughout Los Angeles County will set off fireworks on Independence Day.

The City of Cerritos will host one of the best fireworks displays in Southern California on July 4th at Cerritos High School, 12500 E. 183rd St., starting at 9 p.m. However, locals sometimes find themselves out of town, maybe visiting family or friends. But they still want to see the rockets red glare at a public fireworks show.

One of those nearby fireworks shows is the 25th Annual 4th of July Fireworks Spectacular at the Los Alamitos Joint Forces Training Base, 11200 Lexington Drive, with a second entrance on Orangewood Avenue off of Los Alamitos Boulevard. Gates open at 4 p.m. for live music, food vendors, military aircraft flyovers, giveaways, and a Kids Fun Zone, with the grand finale fireworks display beginning at 9 p.m.

I live off Studebaker by Liberty and our gardener does a good job, he does 4 houses MondayRead More mornings--I think my parents pay for basic and its weekly and I believe only $40.00; I see that he comes back on Tues and Fri to water and do additional things for the neighbor across the street-and whenever I ask him to help me maintenance some tree branches etc, he always does without any issue. His name is Jose and if interested I can get his # tomorrow
