Boston Pops 4th Of July 2016: How To Live Stream Display Online Featuring Demi Lovato, Nick Jonas [VIDEO]
The Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular is set to go down Monday night, and you can watch the whole thing online.
The Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular is an annual display put on by the renowned Boston Pops at the Charles River Esplanade in Boston, Mass.
Performing at this year's Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular are Demi Lovato, Nick Jonas and Little Big Town, who are slated to perform a selection of their greatest hits, accompanied by the Boston Pops Esplanade Orchestra, directed by conductor Keith Lockhart. The event will be hosted by Entertainment Tonight anchor Nancy O'Dell.
The event will air at 9 p.m. ET/PT on CBS and lasts until 11 p.m. The fireworks themselves will begin at 10:30 p.m.
Boston 4 Productions has produced this event for the past 43 years, which is attended annually by approximately 500,000 people who pack Boston's Charles River Esplanade," says CBS. "Boston's July 4th event was founded in 1974 by then Boston Pops Conductor Arthur Fiedler and Boston businessman David G. Mugar. While Fiedler had been conducting Esplanade concerts since 1929, the idea of adding Tchikovsky's '1812 Overture' with fireworks, cannons and bells sparked new life into the well-known musical tradition. The event became famous in 1976 during America's Bicentennial celebration; 400,000 people gathered on the Esplanade and became the largest live symphonic orchestral audience at the time and was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records. Now marking its 43rd year, THE BOSTON POPS FIREWORKS SPECTACULAR is B4's flagship event."
