The 4th of July holiday usually means barbequing with family and friends as well as ending the day with an evening fireworks show that is big, bright, and booming. But there are other ways to light up the sky that are safer and quieter.

For the second year in a row, more US communities are opting to ooh and ah to laser light shows that are set to programmed music or futuristic drone light shows that feature choreographed drones with color-changing lights, reported NBC News San Diego. With temperatures soaring and the summer forest fire season already underway, these are much safer alternatives to fireworks.
