Celebrate America’s Independence with a 25-minute laser show in lieu of fireworks this July 6th! Friendlier to neighbors, pets and the environment, the lights will dazzle you as they play over the Attleboro High School Football Field. Gates open at 7 PM, so come early to enjoy food trucks, music and activities. Sit on the bleachers, or directly on the field with a blanket (please no yard chairs on the football field!), the show starts at 9 PM.

While lasers are a little bit less scary for our furry friends, we ask that you leave your pets at home for this public event for the safety of attendees and the field. The event is rain-or-shine.

We have an abundance of parking! You can find a spot in the surrounding Attleboro Public School lots (Brennan, Studley, or Attleboro High School), in the Highland Park Lot on Rathbun, or even park at the Capron Park  Zoo and walk through the Sweet Forest to the event. We hope you enjoy this first-time event to celebrate the 4th!
