Last update: 1 hours ago

America250 Independence Day Recap: Across the U.S., America’s 250th birthday celebrations rolled on despite heat and storms, with delayed events and evacuations in Washington, D.C., before fireworks and performances resumed. Music & Community Spotlight: From the LA Memorial Coliseum’s fireworks-capped show featuring Journey and Chris Stapleton to New York’s Macy’s fireworks starting early, the weekend kept turning into big entertainment nights. Times Square, But Make It Nationwide: The Times Square ball is set to drop eight times across U.S. time zones, ending with American Samoa—plus a “Giving 4th” benefit show hosted by Jim Gaffigan with Mary J. Blige, Brad Paisley, and NE-YO. American Samoa Arts & Culture: The Jean P Haydon Museum opened an America 250 exhibition on the territory’s union with the U.S., featuring historic artifacts and a drone-and-fireworks finale at Lions Park. Sports & Local Pride: The America 250 fautasi regatta crowned Vatia’s Fuao as grand final winner, while SPW Fitness celebrated its 3rd Annual American Samoa Marathon & Half Marathon in Utulei.
