SNAP, CRACKLE, POP

Delray is once again pulling out all the stops to celebrate America’s birthday. A beachside patriotic staple of Delray for more than half a century, this free event draws in more than 80,000 attendees each year, and this Fourth of July is shaping up to be another huge bash. East Atlantic Avenue from the Intracoastal bridge east to A1A will be closed down for the celebration, which kicks off at 5 p.m. with the singing of the National Anthem and an honor guard presiding over the raising of a 60-foot flag, after which guests can enjoy contests, games, children’s activities, food trucks and vendors. Then at 9 p.m., Zambelli Fireworks will once again light up the night sky with its show-stopping fireworks display over the ocean. delraybeachfl.gov/our-city/things-to-do/4th-of-july, July 4, 5-9 p.m., East Atlantic Avenue and A1A, Delray Beach

Cloud 10 Celebrates its 10-year Anniversary

Local beauty staple Cloud 10 Blow Dry Bar & Beauty Salon was one of the early local pioneers of blow dry bars, and this year the salon is celebrating a decade in downtown Delray. Featuring luxury shampoo brands like Davines and Kevin Murphy and the world’s most advanced hair dryers from Dyson, Cloud 10 never settles for anything less than the best when it comes to hair, makeup and blowouts. This year’s anniversary is extra special because Cloud 10 is offering a 50-percent discount on its newly reissued signature Cloud 10 Heavenly Haircare brand nourishing oil through June 15. Stop in and get yours fast, as this hair care elixir sells out quick, and the waitlists for it fill even quicker! 32 S.E. Second Ave., Delray Beach, 561/303-3000, cloud10usa.com

DELRAY AFTER DARK:

DELRAY’S TIN ROOF is injecting Mondays with some much-needed soul with its weekly “Motown Mondays.” The go-to Atlantic Avenue live music joint kicks off every week with a live performance by The Memory Lane Band from 6-9 p.m., playing tributes of classic rock, pop and soul acts ranging from Stevie Wonder and the Blues Brothers to Van Morrison and the Eagles. Seating for Motown Mondays is at a Miami club-level premium ($80 to reserve a table for four!) but regularly sells out, so be sure to book your tickets online ahead of time. Also be sure to get there early from 4-6 p.m. and take advantage of Tin Roof’s Happy Hour menu that includes half-off appetizers and discounted drink specials. 8 E. Atlantic Ave., Delray Beach, 561/265-5310, tinroofdelraybeach.com
