The RPO returns to downtown Rochester with a patriotic musical celebration complete with fireworks. The concert will include some of your favorite patriotic tunes, such as Armed Forces Song Medley, Liberty Bell March, and Stars and Stripes Forever, as well as other popular music.

The RPO concert starts at 9:00 pm, with fireworks at approximately 10:00 pm. 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 beverages will be available for purchase.
