HOUSTON – If your ideal Fourth of July includes live music, waterfront views, hometown traditions and a spectacular fireworks finale, Baytown should be on your radar.
This year, the city is pulling out all the stops as America celebrates its 250th birthday, transforming Bicentennial Park into an all-day celebration packed with entertainment, family activities and one of the biggest fireworks displays in the Houston area.
Country music fans can catch the Eli Young Band live, while families can spend the day enjoying festival games, a kids’ wagon parade, pie baking contests, photos with a live bald eagle and plenty of classic summertime fun. Looking for a challenge? Lace up your running shoes for the America Mile, where participants can run as many miles as they can for a chance to win a share of $999 in prize money.

Instead of rushing home after the fireworks, why not turn the holiday into a mini getaway?…
