If you are still trying to decide what to do to celebrate Independence Day and how your city is handling its July 4th celebration in 2020, NBCDFW.com has you covered.
Many cities that didn't cancel their Independence Day fireworks have asked their residents to view the show from the safety of their homes or vehicles in drive-in viewing locations. Others have moved their celebrations completely online or postponed shows until Veterans Day.
