Stadium of Fire
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Stadium of Fire is an annual event held in the Brigham Young University's LaVell Edwards Stadium on or very near the United States' Independence Day. It is one of the main events for the America's Freedom Festival.[1] This patriotic extravaganza with a cast of thousands features the largest stadium fireworks show in America. It is also televised worldwide to America's troops and their families on American Forces TV, as a gift from America's Freedom Festival.
The Stadium of Fire was created by Merrill Osmond & Alan Osmond in 1980 and has become one of the largest Independence Day celebrations in the United States.
