Price Chopper’s Homegrown 4th And Fireworks Festival
Date: Monday, July 4th 2011
Time: 2:00 pm – 10:00 pm

This massive fireworks display is visible from near and far, providing a worthwhile show for ESP spectators as well as surrounding neighborhoods. The fireworks in Albany last about an hour and end with a spectacular grand finale, impressive enough to rival any other big city fireworks show.

Traffic and parking in Albany get crazy on the Fourth of July because the city is PACKED, so make sure you show up early and bring plenty of cash for food. The festival begins at 3pm with great food, drink and live entertainment to keep you busy before the fireworks start (usually just after 9:00 pm).
