SpaceX helped stage Starbase City’s inaugural Independence Day fireworks show on 4 July, lighting up the skies above the company’s launch complex at Boca Chica Beach, Texas. The display, promoted locally as the first official Fourth of July celebration for the growing community around the facility, drew spectators to the Gulf Coast site and was widely shared on social media. The event adds another civic milestone for Starbase, which has expanded as SpaceX accelerates development of its Starship launch system. While the company did not disclose attendance figures or costs, the nighttime display underscored SpaceX’s efforts to integrate the private spaceport with the surrounding community and mark U.S. national holidays at the high-profile site.
