AURORA | Aurorans can celebrate Independence Day with a flyover from Buckley Space Force Base and a fireworks display from city hall, or they can set off their own sparklers to mark the occasion — with some conditions.
While the city will not host its full Independence Day celebration due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it will have a public fireworks display Sunday beginning at 9:30 p.m. from Bicentennial Park. Viewers are invited to congregate at the Aurora Municipal Center’s lawn starting at 6 p.m.
According to the National Weather Service, skies over the city are predicted to be clear overnight, with a low temperature of 63 degrees. It could rain during the day however, with a 30% chance of showers predicted after noon.
A flyover of F-16 Fighting Falcons from Buckley Space Force Base is also scheduled to take place beginning at 10 a.m. in honor of the holiday. The flyover serves as extra training for pilots and demonstrates “the readiness and modernization of our force,” a release from the Colorado Air National Guard said.
The anticipated schedule is:
- Lake City – 10:24 a.m.
