Celebrate Independence Day Across Southwest Florida!

SUSAN KOSCHALK July 1, 2024

The Fourth of July holds special memories for most: gathering in the backyard while the smell of the grill wafts through the air, gazing into the night sky as colorful bursts illuminate above, and enjoying favorite pastimes like tossing the ball around and going for a swim. Many of America’s favorite traditions come together in one big celebration to honor the independence of our country.

All across Southwest Florida, communities and entities are planning on commemorating the Fourth in one way or another. Here are some exciting events happening in our area:
