Flagler County Government and the Cities of Palm Coast, Flagler Beach, and Bunnell are thrilled to invite all Flagler County residents and visitors to the United Flagler 4th Community Celebration on Thursday, July 4th, 2024.
The day’s festivities begin with the cherished Stars and Stripes parade in the morning, proudly presented by the Rotary Club of Flagler Beach. The parade will follow its traditional route from North 6th Street to South 6th Street along A1A in Flagler Beach.
Following the parade, residents and visitors can enjoy the beach while indulging in the music and entertainment at Veterans Park in Flagler Beach.
The highlight of the day will be the awe-inspiring Fireworks Over the Runways, hosted at the Flagler Executive Airport off of Fin Way. The entire community is welcome to attend, with gates opening at 5:00 p.m. The dazzling fireworks display will begin at 9:00 PM.
For attendees of the fireworks show, please take note of a change in location this year.
Guest parking, including handicapped parking, will be situated on the south side (back of the airport), accessible via Fin Way off South Belle Terre Boulevard. This will be the sole event location this year. There will be no access to the front of the airport and no parking at Flagler Palm Coast High School.
A variety of vendors, including food vendors, a beer garden, kids’ activities, and more, will be available. A main stage featuring a DJ will maintain an energetic atmosphere, and at 7:00 p.m., local dignitaries and elected officials will recite the Declaration of Independence. The Palm Coast Fire Department Honor Guard will present the nation’s colors, and the talented Melanie DiMartino will grace us with her rendition of the National Anthem. Guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs. Portable restroom facilities and a handwashing station will also be provided.
Please be aware that there is no cost associated with entry, parking, or participation in the event. Glass bottles are strictly prohibited. The airport will remain operational throughout the day, with a temporary closure during the fireworks show. The Flagler County Sheriff’s Office, in collaboration with the Palm Coast Public Works Department and Flagler County Assist volunteers, will oversee traffic control, crosswalks, and parking. Carpooling is strongly encouraged to ensure the accommodation of as many guests as possible.
Save the date and join us for a day filled with fun, entertainment, and patriotic celebration. All event information will be available at UnitedFlagler4th.com.
