Fear not, fellow freedom fan!
The answer, my friend, is like a well-aged firework – it depends. Not on the mood of Uncle Sam, thankfully, but on the date. Since today is, let's check our calendars, definitely not July 4th, we can't give you the exact time just yet. But fret not, firecracker fanatic!
Tip: Summarize each section in your own words.
The National Park Service, the masterminds behind this annual light show, usually releases the official schedule closer to the big day. We're talking late June, early July territory. They'll spill the beans (or, shall we say, the gunpowder?) on the exact time, launch sites, and any other need-to-know details.
Tip: The details are worth a second look.
In the meantime, here's a little fireworks trivia to keep you sparkling:
Tip: Share one insight from this post with a friend.

- Fun fact: The show often incorporates a musical score, so you can ooh and ahh to the booms and whistles in perfect harmony.
Stay tuned, my fireworks friends! As soon as the National Park Service throws down the gauntlet (or should we say, the lighter?), we'll be sure to let you know the exact time to stake your claim on the National Mall and prepare to be dazzled.
Tip: Don’t skim past key examples.
