The RPO is home in Rochester once again for the summer, and we can’t wait for you to help us celebrate Independence Day downtown. As the fireworks are launched mid-air, you’ll enjoy patriotic favorites such as Stars and Stripes Forever, Armed Forces Salute, Morton Gould’s American Salute, and George M. Cohan’s Star-Spangled Spectacular, as well as Tchaikovsky’s festive 1812 Overture.

Attendees are encouraged to bring chairs or blankets for more comfortable viewing of the fireworks show and concert and to refrain from bringing pets for everyone's safety. Food and beverage will be available for purchase.
