While several surrounding areas will blast off fireworks on the Fourth of July, Alexandria has its own celebration a few days later.
Alexandria’s 274th birthday party (and the United States’ 247th birthday party) is set for Saturday, July 8.
Alexandria was founded in 1749 and re-chartered in 1852 (after a brief time as a part of the District of Columbia).
The birthday celebration will include a performance by the Alexandria Symphony Orchestra and a fireworks display at 9:30 p.m. The birthday party starts at 6 p.m. and includes cupcakes, items from local vendors and live music at Oronoco Bay Park, 100 Madison St.
