Everyone is invited to "Light Up" their Independence Day weekend celebration on Friday evening, July 3rd with a fantastic outdoor concert extravaganza, featuring "A Tribute to Journey" starring the ever-talented and unforgettable band, Chain-Reaction. Back by popular demand, Chain-Reaction takes the stage at 8PM and promises to delight audiences of all ages as their famous melodies take listeners on a spectacular journey back to the '80s with performances of timeless Journey hits like "Separate Ways," "Don't Stop Believin'," "Faithfully," "Open Arms" and so many more.

"After the concert, the night skies will 'Light Up' with an extraordinary fireworks event produced and presented by Gateway Fireworks Displays of St. Louis," stated Tammy Scholten, Director of Marketing. "We're very proud that Branson Landing's Liberty Light Up fireworks display has been named a 'Top Pick of the American Pyrotechnic Association' this year, with nine others from around the United States.

The "Liberty Light Up" display will be near the Landing's signature fountains and this one-of-a-kind choreographed spectacular is sure to amaze both young and the young at heart, as it builds to an awe-inspiring Gateway Fireworks signature grand finale -- not soon to be forgotten," concluded Ms. Scholten.

Branson Landing's Liberty Light Up celebration not only honors America's independence, but serves as the official kick-off to Branson Landing's FREE Summer Concert Series—featuring LIVE performances in front of the $7.5 million water & fire spectacular fountain show in Branson Landing's Town Square.
