Tips and Tricks to Get the Most Out of Watching one of the Country's Leading Independence Day Celebrations

ADDISON, TEXAS, UNITED STATES, June 20, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- For more than three decades, Addison Kaboom Town!, has thrilled fans with its unparalleled 30-minute fireworks show choreographed to a patriotic soundtrack that is radio simulcast to hundreds of thousands of fans across the 4.4-square-mile town. The 2022 event features a fireworks show which is larger than

ever before. Because of the immense popularity of the annual event, event organizers hope have released recommendations to help the event's 500,000 visitors best experience this celebration of American Independence.

The city-produced watch event at Addison Circle Park is a part of the tradition for some fans of Addison Kaboom Town. In order to control crowds at the park, a free ticketing system is being used this year. Free tickets to Addison Kaboom Town will be available beginning June 22 at 10 a.m. here: https://addisonkaboomtown.com/tickets/.

When general admission tickets to Addison Circle Park sell out, guaranteed park tickets will still be available to those who book an Addison Kaboom Town hotel package. Packages start below $90, and include your room, six tickets to the park and a cooling towel.

Those seeking a more customized viewing experience can select one of the many Kaboom Town Watch Parties at Addison restaurants and businesses. With more than 200 restaurants, the Town of Addison boasts more restaurants per capita than any other city in the United States. A list of watch parties can be found here and the site is being updated daily until the event. Many of those parties will require or recommend reservations, so be sure to make your plans early.

Parties run the gamut from casual patio parties to luxe dinners, and everything in between. So whether visitors prefer to karaoke before Kabooming or relax for a live concert, Addison has something for everyone.

Beyond the watch parties, fireworks fans find every available park and parking lot in which to picnic and enjoy the Addison Airport Airshow and fireworks. Guests who wish to experience Kaboom Town in this way should arrive early to find the best viewing.

The Air Show will begin with the Red River Skydivers and continues with some of the country’s top aerobatic pilots and a cadre of historic warbirds from the Cavanaugh Flight Museum before closing out with a pyrotechnic night flight!

While Addison Kaboom Town fans are wise to leave the pyrotechnic science to the professionals who design and fire the show, there are lots of other tech about which guests should be aware. In orders to enjoy the fabulous simulcast of the fireworks on Star 102.1 FM, guests should have access to a radio or use the iHeart app to hear it from a cell phone.

Organizers recommend being prepared with a portable power bank. Because there are so many people live-streaming both the flyover and the fireworks, cell service can become challenging. It is also recommended to find local wi-fi sources to broaden your reach.

In order to sound like a pyrotechnic engineer, the American Pyrotechnics Association has compiled a glossary of fireworks terms and types, so viewers can recognize the array of pyrotechnic effects one will see during the Addison Kaboom Town! show.

Visitors celebrating at Addison Circle Park should review the rules about what can – and cannot – be brought into the park. Most importantly, coolers in the park are limited to the small, personal size, and alcohol cannot be carried in, although beer and wine will be available for sale.
