The 2013 MetroPCS Fair Park Fourth will feature a performance by the Dallas Wind Symphony, reduced admission to Fair Park’s museums at varying times, “dancing water” shows at the Esplanade Fountain, kids activities and entertainment, plus a fireworks show. Fireworks can viewed from within the Cotton Bowl or from various locations around Fair Park. Wristbands for seating in the Cotton Bowl will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis at 4:30 pm.

Bands Quiver and Havana and the Dallas Wind Symphony will perform prior to the fireworks, while Motion will entertain the masses directly afterward.
