FAIRHOPE, ALABAMA’S FOURTH OF JULY FESTIVAL AND FIREWORKS DISPLAY

The City of Fairhope will host its annual Fourth of July Festival and Fireworks display, again this year, in Henry George Park and at the Fairhope Municipal Pier and beach front parks.

The Baldwin Pops Band Independence Day Concert will begin at 7:30 p.m. in Henry George Park. The mayor will give a brief welcome at 7:15 followed by a variety of patriotic music that will be played before and during the fireworks display. The Fairhope fireworks display, coordinated by the Fairhope Volunteer Fire Department, will begin at approximately 9 p.m.

The north end of Fairhope Municipal Park will be open throughout the day and will remain open until no parking is available. The south end of the beach front park and Knoll Park will be available to spectators. Handicap parking will be available near the fountain but will be limited. The top of the bay hill will close to traffic at approximately 6 pm, depending upon availability of parking and the crowd or when the Fairhope Police Department deem it necessary for the safety of pedestrians.  Those who wish to park in the handicap area should arrive early and plan to stay until the fireworks are over. Following the fireworks, all traffic will be routed out Fairhope Avenue to Greeno (U.S. 98) where you will be able to turn north, south or continue east.  Officers will be at all traffic lights to assist with traffic flow.

WABF 1220 AM will be broadcasting the Baldwin Pops concert live for those who are not able to make it down for the concert.  Also, those who sit on the bay front bluffs for the fireworks should bring their battery powered radio and tune it to WABF 1220 AM for better sound.

This is a family friendly event and no alcoholic beverages are allowed in the park or on the municipal beach area. For more information on Fairhope’s Fourth of July Festival and Fireworks display call 929-1466.
