Jacksonville celebrates the 4th of July with its traditional fireworks display back in the city center, lighting up the St. Johns River at 9 p.m. this Friday. Unlike previous years, in 2025 there will only be one official downtown show, although spectators should be aware of viewing areas limited by construction. The holiday falling on a Friday ensures an explosion of lights across Florida, from Fernandina Beach to Palm Coast, promising an unforgettable night of celebration.
