HOLIDAY | Bang for your buck

Central Illinois’ largest Independence Day fireworks display takes place Friday, June 27. Rock the Dock is famous for its fireworks launched from barges on Lake Springfield in front of Lake Springfield Marina. Country singer Austin Webb, whose new single “Raise ’Em Up” is currently being played on the radio, will perform. Webb was touted in 2013 by Country Weekly as the “one to watch.” Also there will be food, beverages, games and a children’s area. Leading up to the event, free tickets are available at various ticket stops.
