Get out your American flag tank top, your red white and blue swimsuit, and your most patriotic hat, everyone. It’s time to celebrate America.

It’s also the time of year that Fayetteville residents begin asking themselves, “Where can I watch some fireworks in Northwest Arkansas in 2014?”

We’ve scoured the internets, and below is a list of the displays we’ve found scheduled throughout the area so far this year. If we discover more, we’ll add those to the list.

As always, if you know of other local fireworks displays that are open to the public, feel free to let us know in the comments.

Happy 4th of July, everyone.
