July 4th: The Best Celebrations in San Diego County!

Independence Day celebrates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence, a document announcing the colonies’ separation from Great Britain, on July 4, 1776. A year after the document was signed, a spontaneous celebration in Philadelphia marked the first anniversary but Independence Day celebrations did not become commonplace until after the War of 1812, according to the Library of Congress.
