Independence Day is commonly associated with fireworks, parades, barbecues, picnics, concerts, baseball games and other festivities and celebrations. Your premier Austin custom homebuilder, Sterling Custom Homes, would like for you to take a look at just a few of the many events offered in Austin this upcoming Fourth of July.
Thursday, July 4th @ 8 PM join others along the East Riverside Corridor at the hottest bar-coffee shop-barbecue-stop that opened in late 2012. Touted as family friendly, The Buzz Mill, located at 1505 Town Creek Drive, will feature Austin’s own Union Specific for a night of Blue Ox BBQ and a view of the fireworks.
Attend the showing of Independence Day @ 8:45 PM at Austin’s one and only drive-in movie theatre, the Blue Starlite Drive-In III at Old Airport, 1901 E. 51st St. Also enjoy the patented on-screen cinematic fireworks display before and after the movie.
