As Rhode Islanders get ready for Fourth of July weekend, the same questions are on everyone's mind – where and when to catch a fireworks show, how to attend the Bristol parade and whether or not Rhode Island's favorite celebrity homeowner Taylor Swift will once again be celebrating the holiday in Watch Hill.

Taylor Swift’s Rhode Island, mansion has become synonymous with the singer’s star-studded gatherings, especially on the Fourth of July. Dozens of A-list celebrities — including Blake Lively, Nick Jonas, Selena Gomez and more — have partied in the $17 million estate, which has gotten heavy use since Swift purchased it in 2013.

Details: For the best view of the fireworks, find a westward facing spot along Newport Harbor. Popular viewing spots include Perrotti Park, King Park, Queen Anne Square and Fort Adams State Park, where the celebration will include lawn games, a bouncy house and live music.
