Things to Do in Panama City Beach
One of the best ways to celebrate the 4th of July is with a colorful fireworks show, and there are plenty of opportunities to do just that in Panama City Beach. During the week, there are three different displays, which means plenty of chances to witness magical shows.
- Papa Joe’s Bayside is once again hosting Light Up the Bay on July 2 at 8:30 p.m. We recommend getting there early to enjoy the variety of food trucks and secure your viewing spot.
- July 3 is a double feature night. The Boardwalk Beach Resort Hotel & Convention Center hosts Light Up the Gulf at 8:30 p.m. Head over to Treasure Island Marina to see the Freedom Rocks Fireworks, which starts around 8:45 p.m.
- There’s no better place to be on July 4 than Pier Park to watch the Pier Park Fireworks display. Things kick off at roughly 9 p.m., as fireworks are simultaneously fired from Russell-Fields City Pier and M.B. Miller County Pier.
30A Events to Celebrate Independence Day
The charming towns that make up 30A are known to get into the 4th of July fun as well! There are several events going on throughout towns like Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach.
- Make your way to the Alys Beach Amphitheater for live music from 6 to 9 p.m., with fireworks to follow. While this is a free event, food and beverages are available for purchase.
