A Capitol Fourth 2023

Live Stream, TV Coverage, Lineup, Start Time, Schedule

4th July Washington DC Capitol Hill

A Capitol Fourth concert is back again for US Independence Day on the 4th July, showing live on TV via PBS and also now live streaming, online, to a global audience.

The Capitol Fourth is a 4th July tradition that is, I suppose, relatively recent, having started in 2004, but it has grown to prove enduringly popular. The fact it's free certainly helps, and the location is absolutely unique, the west lawn of the United States Capitol Building not a place you'll usually get to sit for a few hours. The music is varied too, from big pop stars to the National Symphony Orchestra, the concert has something to appeal to most tastes, along with celebrity guests and entertainers that make this a real event to look out for.
