Memphis celebrates 4th of July after a year of no festivities
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - Memphis celebrates 4th of July alongside the Mississippi River.
It’s one that organizers say is even more special after not being able to celebrate together last year.
Pairing fireworks with live music, food trucks and crowds of people out here today, Memphians were taken back to pre-COVID-19 pandemic times and are excited for the rest of 2021.
“It’s super exciting to actually be able to have a celebration that everyone can come together and have fun,” George Abbott, Director of External Affairs for Memphis River Parks Partnership, said.
