With such an array of views it can be overwhelming trying to find the best one to watch the fireworks on the 4th of july. The noogalife gives you our top 5 firework spots for the 4th. So gather around with family, grill some hotdogs and throw the frisbee, set yourself up for the best firework display that Chattanooga has to offer:

1. Pops on the river:

I am a lover of classical music. I regularly tune into 90.5 and listen. This venue ranks as number one for me for two reasons one, the amazing view of awesome fireworks and two a free classical concert that accompanies it. You seriously can not beat Pops on the river!

Pops on the river is located at Coolidge park and is a free event. There is even a free shuttle if you can not get parking nearby. What better place to enjoy the fourth with your family?

2. The Southern Belle Fireworks Cruise:

If dealing with parks, children and crowds while watching fireworks seems like a hassle you can always check out the Southern Belle’s Fireworks cruise. 

This unique experience allows you to watch the fireworks while still enjoying the music , minus the noisy families. This exclusive opportunity comes at the small fee of 14.95 per ticket. Call the southern belle for more information.

3. Lake Winnie’s fireworks :

Number 3 on our list is Lake Winnie’s amazing fireworks. With the normal price of admission you can enjoy the park, rides, food and fun with an added bonus of an awesome firework display at 10 pm.  Families are allowed to pack a picnic lunch and bring a blanket, spread out and enjoy a spectacular show.

4.  The Tennessee Aquarium:

Looking for a completely different and unique experience for the fourth? Look no further then the Tennessee Aquarium, who will be offering a sleep in the deep experience. After you watch Pops on the river why not snuggle down in the ocean in underwater cave and enjoy some pizza with your friends? This experience is like no other and has a price tag to prove it at 45 dollars a member and 55 for non-members it’s a pricey but one of kind experience not to be missed.

5. Cleveland TN:

Cleveland TN hosts an array of things to do on the fourth, from parades, to gospel concerts, to bluegrass bands and  finally a huge fireworks display this is the place to hang out and mingle. You can bring food, set up some camp chairs and spend the day getting to know our neighbors while enjoying our day of independence.

No matter if you go out and enjoy major fireworks or stay home with your little ones and play with sparklers and bubbles, make this Fourth of July the best one. This is a day to remember our independence and enjoy another year with our families.
