4th of July Fireworks

4th of July Fireworks at Southport Waterfront Park

The patriotic spirit of America is alive and well in the City of Southport. For over 200 years this small maritime community has celebrated our nation’s independence in a big way. The celebration has grown from colonial times when ships lay anchor in her harbor and shot their cannons to today’s festival where 40,000 to 50,000 people come each year to bathe in the richness of spirit commemorating Old Glory. Incorporated as the N.C. 4th of July Festival in the year 1972 the festival committee strives to keep the focus of the festival on honoring our nation’s birthday with a little fun thrown in.

The Southport Fireworks Show will begin at 9pm at Waterfront Park. Take in this magnificent culmination of the weeks festivities as you watch the fireworks reflect over the mouth of the Cape Fear.
