No city does fireworks quite like Boston; this year’s will be the largest and most complex Boston Fourth of July pyrotechnic show yet. More than 20,000 pounds of explosives will be used for the display, which will include the largest shells to date: 10-inch diameter shells that will climb to 1,500 feet – roughly three times the height of the historic Custom House Tower. Rozzi – known for making many of their shells – will create close to 30 percent of all the shells used within the Boston show.
