Austin’s biggest Fourth of July bash yet — Star-Spangled Fest — is here to celebrate America’s 250th birthday with free music, food, drinks, and a jaw-dropping drone show tracing 250 years of travel, capped off by 2,500 fireworks. But with the crowds and festivities come safety reminders: DPS is ramping up patrols to crack down on speeding, drunk driving, and distracted driving, while APD is banning jet skis on Lake Austin.
