When my daughters were young, fireworks were mandatory for Fourth of July. Many residents in Pasadena and La Canada have great vantages for viewing the Rose Bowl fireworks. The CV show can be enjoyed by some those in Markridge Estates and other La Crescenta hillside dwellers. The show at Lakeside Golf Club can be enjoyed by many Glendale, Burbank and Toluca Lake households.
For those who don’t live in prime fireworks watching neighborhoods and not invited to a private party, here’s the list of where to catch the best shows and events in and around my favorite Los Angeles neighborhoods:
