New Orleans One of Best Places to Celebrate Fourth of July Nationwide
Apparently it's one of the best places to get your red, white and blue on!
Before you know it we will be celebrating our nation's independence and watching fireworks light up the sky. How do you plan on celebrating? My go-to freedom holiday is being surrounded by loved ones, lots of food and of course, fireworks. To me, it doesn't matter where I am, but apparently some cities are better to celebrate in than others.
WalletHub compiled a list of the top cities to party like it's 1776.
The Best Places for 4th of July Celebrations are New York City (1), Los Angeles (2), and San Diego (3). To determine this, WalletHub looked at things that make Fourth of July so great. Things like the legality of fireworks in the area, prices of beer and wine, food prices, the projected weather forecast, and more.
New Orleans landed at number 11 on the list making it one of the best places to celebrate. WalletHub thinks highly of the celebrations that will be happening around town and the attractions the city has to offer for both locals and tourists. We can't really argue since the Big Easy sure knows how to party.
