Due to COVID-19 and executive orders from the Governor of Rhode Island placing restrictions on large gatherings, Bryant University and the Town of Smithfield regret to announce cancellation of the Independence Day celebration scheduled for July 2 at the University’s Beirne Stadium Complex.
We know that Smithfield residents and members of Bryant's campus community look forward to the annual fireworks and Navy Band concert, however COVID-19 presents a continuing health threat, and the safety of our community and neighbors is Bryant’s highest priority.
We hope that everyone can enjoy the Independence Day holiday, and that you find new ways to recognize and celebrate the signing of the Declaration of Independence and founding of the United States of America as an independent nation.
