Announce the City of Boynton Beach’s 4^th of July event by Eleanor Krusell, Public Communications & Marketing Director.

It’s getting close and we are getting excited for this year’s 4^th of July in #BoyntonBeach. Re-branded as Red, White & Blue with a waterfront view, this year's event will focus on one of Boynton Beach’s amenities - our waterfront.

We hope that you have seen the street signage around town or the digital billboards on I-95 or maybe even seen it advertised on the big screen at the Alco Movie Theater. (16,000 flyers were also inserted into the utility bills and copy was placed on electronic bills.) 

This event will begin at 6:30p with a two-man water demonstration by Palm Beach Hydroflight over the Intracoastal Waterway, music on the main stage by local band Sub-Groove (original funk), and tunes by a guitarist near the waterfront. 

Local food trucks, Troy's Barbeque, Gastro Geeks, Annabell's Beach Treats, and the Boardwalk Italian Ice & Creamery will be on-site to delight any palette. The Kid's Area, under the large pavilion, will include several 

coastal-related children activities such as a fishing pond game, sand and beach toys, rock painting, under the sea chalkboard art, as well as the opportunity to have a sea animal (or american image) painted on faces.

The event will end with a spectacular fireworks show, synchronized to patriotic music, by Zambelli Internationale.

Based on evaluation comments received last year, we have increased free shuttle services. Two buses will be provided at two convenient locations - Journey Church on Federal Highway and City Hall on Quantum Boulevard. There is also a designated ride share location at the Shell station on Federal Highway, just north of the park.
