There may not be fireworks in La Jolla this year, but there are still plenty of places to celebrate Independence Day in San Diego.
If you’re not aware, there won’t be a La Jolla Cove 4th of July fireworks show this year. Instead, the local community will be able to see a more environmentally friendly drone show near La Jolla Shores.
For those looking for traditional fireworks in San Diego, fear not. There will still be fireworks shows across America’s Finest City this year. Here are our top picks.
