General Aviation on Fourth of July any TFR’s?

Im looking to fly my cessna on the night that our city shoots off fireworks, however I would assume that there are either some TFR’s or procedure to follow. This will be my first fourth of july as a pilot and i kinda wanted see the fireworks from a different view, but at a safe distance. Any idea what to expect? Can it even be done? Have you ever done it before?

Go to faa.gov, on the right hand side click on ‘Graphic TFRs’
Look up your area and see if there are any TFRs.
BTW I’ve seen plenty of fireworks from aircraft but haven’t gone flying just for that reason. Probably a good idea to get traffic advisories if you’re going to be looking at the ground instead of for other aircraft.

It’s boring, I wouldn’t even waste the fuel.
