**Massachusetts Gears Up for Fireworks Extravaganza Throughout July**

**Boston, MA -** Massachusetts residents can expect a dazzling summer as towns across the state prepare for a flurry of fireworks displays. The celebrations, largely centered around the Fourth of July, will stretch through mid-July, with the Department of Fire Services (DFS) expected to approve even more permits in the coming weeks.

The highlight of the season remains the 51st annual Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular on the Esplanade. This year’s event boasts a star-studded lineup including country music superstar LeAnn Rimes, “Hamilton” alum Leslie Odom Jr., and local favorites Bell Biv Devoe. The fireworks, of course, will be synchronized to the iconic sounds of conductor Keith Lockhart and the Boston Pops Orchestra.

However, the Boston Pops is just the tip of the iceberg. Greater Boston and beyond will be hosting numerous displays. Boston.com has compiled a list of over 90 planned fireworks celebrations from Provincetown to Pittsfield and many points in between. The list will be updated weekly as more permits are approved.

“Whether it’s a July 4th celebration, a town block party, a sports game, or even a religious feast, there’s likely a fireworks display happening near you this summer,” says Kevin Slane, staff writer for Boston.com. “Our comprehensive list will help you stay informed.”

The list is scheduled to be updated regularly through July 6th.
