Some Southern California communities have scaled back or canceled their July 4 celebrations this year, but the skies over L.A. will still bloom with plenty of colorful explosions when dusk hits Sunday. Most of the shows in Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura and Riverside counties are free or inexpensive, but if you're looking for a more elaborate affair and are willing to spend extra to get it, head to the Hollywood Bowl to see country superstar Vince Gill perform, or to the Newport Dunes resort, or to the Rose Bowl, where families can experience an all-day food and music celebration finished off by a pyrotechnic display.
