'A Capitol Fourth' will go on separate from Trump's planned July 4 celebration. [View all]

'The annual “A Capitol Fourth” concert on the West Lawn of the Capitol will go on as usual this July 4, completely separate from a new event President Donald Trump wants to hold on the National Mall during the same evening. . .

Now, in posts on social media, organizers of “A Capitol Fourth” are making it clear that their event has no connection to what Trump is planning, and it will go on as usual.

The concert is held on the West Lawn of the Capitol and is broadcast live on PBS.

This year’s lineup of performers for “A Capitol Fourth” has not yet been announced.'
