The one similarity you will find is the firework display that covers the sky over the Bay Area.

From the East Bay to San Francisco, and from the North Bay to the South Bay, 4th of July is a fun time wherever you may be. Choosing a party, or festival may be difficult, but rest assured each one is great in their own ways.
