The City of Fort Walton Beach will host “4^th of July at the Fort Walton Beach Landing” from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Thursday, July 4, 2024.

There’ll be plenty of food vendors to choose from, including Tonie’s Gumbo House, Kansas City Wings, B & T Kettle Korn, Miracle Strip Concessions, and Tiana’s Lunchbox. There will also be cool treats to beat the heat from Jay’s Italian Ice and Okaloosa Dippin’ Dots as well as vendors selling light-up novelty items.

Scratch 2020, who performed during last year’s Fourth of July event, will be returning to the stage with their mix of party and rock music this year. Members of the Fort Walton Beach Community Chorus will also be performing during the evening.

The evening celebration will close out with a fireworks display over Santa Rosa Sound beginning at 8:45 p.m.

“It’s a nice family night at The Landing,” said Fort Walton Beach Recreation Director Tiffiny Corcoran. “The fireworks show is always amazing and there will be plenty of good food and music.”
