All of Flagler County's residents are invited to celebrate July Fourth at the United Flagler 4th Community Celebration.

The day-long celebration will feature several events, including a parade and fireworks show, according to a press release from the city of Palm Coast. 

It will be hosted jointly by all of the county's municipalities — Palm Coast, Flagler Beach, Bunnell and the towns of Beverly Beach and Marineland — alongside the Flagler County government.

“This is what a community celebration should look like,” Palm Coast Mayor David Alfin said. “This is a unique opportunity for everyone in our city and our community to unite and commemorate our great nation's history and celebrate our freedoms together.”

The day will start at 10 a.m. with a Stars and Stripes parade hosted by the Rotary Club of Flagler Beach. The parade will follow the usual route from North 6th Street to South 6th Street along State Road A1A, according to the press release.

From 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., DJ Vern from Surf 97.3 FM will provide music and entertainment at Veteran Park in Flagler Beach.

The fireworks show — Fireworks Over the Runways — will be held at the Flagler Executive Airport at 201 Airport Road in Palm Coast. The gates will open at 5 p.m. At 7 p.m., local officials will read the Declaration of Independence, with the fireworks display following at 9 p.m.

The events have free parking, entry and participation, and food vendors will be available. 

Parking, including handicapped parking, will be available on Fin Way off Belle Terre Parkway South. Overflow Parking will be at Flagler Palm Coast High School.

Residents who park in overflow parking will need to walk about half a mile from FPC to the airport entrance.
