Happy Birthday America!
Kentuckiana’s largest Fourth of July celebration returns to Waterfront Park, and this year they are celebrating America turning 250 years old.
The free event will feature an evening of family-friendly entertainment, live music, food and, of course, fireworks.
The fun begins at 5 p.m. with family activities, food trucks and live performances that celebrate the roots of American music. The event finale will be a glorious fireworks display over the Ohio River at 10 p.m.
If you’re celebrating another way or can’t be there in person, WHAS 11 will be live-streaming all the festivities.
We should also remember that the holiday commemorates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. The cherished document celebrates the core American principles of equality and the unalienable rights to “Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
Be safe and have fun!

Having a Ball
It was a fun night out at the soccer field for some Axiom fans of Lou City. Jac Scott Fitzpatrick, Sawyer Lillard, Cullen Ebert and their spouses cheered on the players as they challenged the Tampa Bay Rowdies. Unfortunately Lou City lost 0-2, but it was an exciting match and a great way to spend a summer evening.
