Out of an abundance of caution, the City of Fort Walton Beach has CANCELED the 4th of July Fireworks and Landing concerts. The decision was made due to the steady rise in COVID-19 cases in our area.

The fireworks show is being rescheduled for the kickoff of the City’s Fall Concerts at the Landing series on Friday, September 4.

Additionally, the Fire Engine Dedication Ceremony originally scheduled for July 11, 2020, is now CANCELED. A modified dedication ceremony will be shared on the Fire Department’s Facebook page for the public to view beginning at 9 a.m. on July 11.
