The bridge is located near the entrance to Palmetto Dunes (on the right side of the road if you are exiting) and is connected to the bike path.

Before fireworks light up the night sky over Broad Creek at dusk, beloved entertainer and musician Shannon Tanner will perform special patriotic shows and family-favorite songs at both 6:30 and 8:00 pm on Sunday, July 4^th. American flags and paddle fans will be distributed while supplies last.

Other family entertainment will be provided by Cappy the Clown from 6:00-9:00 pm, with face painting, balloon animals, sand art, glitter tattoos and a variety of interactive games and activities.

The July 4^th and all other HarbourFest fireworks shows are produced by Falcon Fireworks, a 25-year-old pyrotechnics company based near Savannah, Ga. Falcon Fireworks has produced many pyrotechnic shows up and down the East Coast — including more than 40 shows on July 4th alone. They have upgraded the HarbourFest show, making the fireworks more visible and incorporating a variety of unique firing techniques with an increased quality and quantity of shells.

The July 4^th HarbourFest celebration is free and open to the public. Food and drinks are available for purchase. No coolers please. Events are weather permitting and subject to change.
