The fireworks in DC last night were described as red, white, and blue. A video result from the celebration says they “colored the sky in shades of red, white and blue,” and local coverage says the National Mall fireworks closed out the July 4 celebration in Washington, D.C.

Quick scoop

That matches the usual patriotic palette for the July 4 show in Washington, and the coverage I found points to those three colors rather than a single standout hue.

Context

The event was part of the America 250 celebration on the National Mall, which explains the heavy red-white-blue theme.

TL;DR

  • Main colors: red, white, and blue.
  • Setting: National Mall / Washington, D.C. July 4 fireworks.
  • Vibe: classic patriotic display.
