Starlight Spectacular at Bellevue Baptist Church
Bellevue is promising for the biggest fireworks display they have ever had at Bellevue. Bring your picnic baskets and sit on the soccer fields. If you want to grill food, the grill area will be open. If you choose they will start selling cold drinks and food at around 5pm. At 7pm their musical guest hit the stage. This year their two feature artists are "33 Miles" and "The Isaacs"; there will be more artists also on the stage. After dark, Bellevue Orchestra will give the background music to the spectacular fireworks display. Leave your pets and alcohol, tobacco, rollerblades, Bikes, and skateboards at home. They will be letting traffic enter from Appling Road only to Bellevue's parking.

Bartlett Fireworks Extravaganza at Bobby K. Flaherty Municipal Center
Festivities are from 6:30pm to 10:00pm and there will be food vendors throughout that you can purchase food from. Be wowed by the Bartlett Community Concert Band and the Memphis Sounds Band while you check out all of the activities that they have set up for the family. There is face painting, a car show, games for the kids, and much more. Fireworks start at dark, I have been to this before and can say that they put on a good fireworks show. One thing to keep in mind is that due to the festivities, Appling road between Southern Way and Flaherty Place will be shut down starting at 4pm.
