Music around Washington, DC for July Fourth Weekend

Filed under: Uncategorized — Dave @ 10:35 pm

Every year thousands of people come to Washington, DC to see fireworks on the National Mall for Independence Day. While DC may not be Philadelphia (where the Declaration of Independence was written) or Yorktown, VA (where the Revolutionary War was won), the Nation’s Capitol is one of the best destinations to celebrate the summer’s biggest holiday. There is a lot of music playing throughout the region all weekend long (by the way it’s great when the 4th falls on a Saturday), so make sure you check-out the schedule after the jump.
