Last Minute Travel: A July 4th Like You Remember
|
|
 So you haven’t made your plans for the 4th? We have not one but
two 4th of July parties in Lake Lure & the Blue Ridge Foothills to answer your dilemma. Both are full of the fun activities you remember and fireworks ending the day with a bang.
In the refreshingly small downtown of Spindale, enjoy the
“Hometown” Fourth of July. From 2 PM to 10 PM, arts, crafts, food, live music, kids’ activities and a car show will fill your day. Fireworks are at 9 PM.

If you want your fireworks by the water, then head to Lake Lure for a “Family Fun Festival” from Noon until 8 PM, with fireworks following
at 9 PM. At the Family Fun Festival, you will find a bubble tent, tie-dye station, misting station, and more. Click here for more information.
