Fireworks light up the sky at Fourth of July's Celebration Under the Stars in Murfreesboro

Murfreesboro's Celebration Under the Stars returned to the Fountains at Gateway as hundreds flocked to the annual family-friendly festival and fireworks show on the Fourth of July.

Powered by Middle Tennessee Electric and Pyro Shows, the celebration featured food trucks, music from The Pilots and a variety of family activities — including the splash pad that provided heat relief for children of all ages.

Formerly held at McKnight Park off Dejarnette Lane, Celebration Under the Stars moved to the Medical Center Parkway location in 2020 due to the pandemic. Because Fountains is centrally located, more community members have the opportunity to watch the show from afar as well as enjoy festivities on site.
