We&#8217;ve got you covered! National Park Service spokesman Mike Litterst recently sat down with the Washington Examiner&#8217;s Christy Matino to give us the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/miss-india-may-have-taken-the-crown-but-israel-no-less-a-winner-at-miss-universe\/\" title=\"Miss India May Have Taken the Crown but Israel No Less a Winner at Miss Universe\">inside scoop<\/a> on what to expect on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<h3>Smithsonian Folklife Festival<\/h3>\n<p>The festivities kick off at 11 a.m. with the Smithsonian Folklife Festival, located between Seventh Street and 14th Street. But don&#8217;t worry if you can&#8217;t make it right at the start &#8211; the festival will be going strong until 7:30 p.m.<\/p>\n<h3>Independence Day Parade<\/h3>\n<p>At 11:45 a.m., get ready for the spectacular Independence Day Parade, starting on Seventh Street and Constitution Avenue. This parade is a sight to behold, featuring floats, bands, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/u-s-military-marches-in-front-of-pride-flag-no-american-flag-in-sight\/\" title=\"U.S. Military Marches in Front of Pride Flag, No American Flag in Sight\">military marches<\/a>, and balloons. Make sure to come prepared with sunscreen and water to beat the heat!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You know, you don&#8217;t want your day ruined by having to deal with a heat illness,&#8221; Litterst advised.<\/p>\n<h3>Capitol Fourth Concert<\/h3>\n<p>As the day progresses, head over to the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol at 8 p.m. for the Capitol Fourth Concert. Hosted by the hilarious Alfonso Ribeiro from America&#8217;s Funniest Home Videos, this concert will feature incredible acts like Chicago, Boyz II Men, the Muppets, and Belinda Carlisle. The National Symphony Orchestra will also be performing, and you can catch the entire concert on PBS.<\/p>\n<h3>Fireworks Display<\/h3>\n<p>Finally, get ready for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/heres-whats-going-on-in-washington-dc-on-the-fourth-of-july-2\/\" title=\"This is the Fourth of July scene in Washington, DC.\">breathtaking fireworks display starting<\/a> at 9:09 p.m. The fireworks will be launched from both sides of the National Mall&#8217;s reflecting pool, creating a mesmerizing show visible for miles around.<\/p>\n<p>Just a friendly reminder from Litterst: the National Mall will be fenced from 14th Street to the Lincoln Memorial, so it&#8217;s best to take the Metro into the heart of the city. Driving and parking near the National Mall might not be the best idea.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t miss out on these incredible Fourth of July celebrations in Washington, D.C.!
