One of Southern California’s most explosive 4th of July celebrations will take place in Newport Beach as Newport Dunes Waterfront Resort hosts 2 days of festivities kicking off on the 4th with a live performance by the legendary classic rock group, America, that will be set to a massive fireworks display. With hits like “Horse With No Name,” “Tin Man,” “Ventura Highway” and “Sister Golden Hair Surprise,” the Grammy-winning band helped shape the music scene of the ‘70s and ‘80s and their hits, which continue to be played today. Dunes officials say that they are in negotiations with other entertainment for July 6th.
The Dunes boasts more than a half-century of 4th of July tradition, which includes live music all day, carnival games, crafts, face painting, BBQ and access to its aquatic waterpark known as Moe B’s Watersports. Since the holiday falls on a Thursday, organizers say that they will continue the festivities throughout the weekend. For information on pricing & ticket sales call 949-729-3863.
