Independence Day Music Festival

Salt River Fields 5th Annual Independence Day Music Festival will take place on Friday, July 3 and will include both musical celebrations and patriotic fireworks (the largest show in Arizona). Doors open at 5 p.m. while the music begins at 5:30 p.m. with Arizona favorite, Banana Gun. The headliner is Wilco with Dr. Dog and tickets range from $25 to  $95 on ticketmaster.com. The initially planned two-day celebration is being condensed back to its traditional one night of fun after Little Big Town’s performance on Saturday, July 4 was cancelled due to one of its member’s impending throat surgery. All July 4 tickets will be honored on July 3 and members of the military get in free with proper ID. For more information, visit saltriverfields.com.
