Patriotic Musical Celebration with Fireworks for July 4th
With the Town of Manteo and Performance by East Carolina University
July 4 at 8 p.m.
Outdoor Pavilion

Roanoke Island Festival Park will hold a July 4th celebration that will feature East Carolina University, performing music by George M. Cohan at 8 p.m. The celebration will also include fireworks provided by the town of Manteo. Held at the park’s Pavilion, the celebration is free and open to the public.

Gates open to the public at 6 p.m. After 5 p.m., only handicap parking will be allowed at the park.

Due to the large crowds for this event and the loudness of the fireworks, pets are discouraged. Please note that once the fireworks begin, the Pavilion gates will be closed to create a safety zone, until the fireworks are complete. During this time, for your safety, no one will be allowed to enter or exit the Pavilion.

As the entire country commemorates Independence Day with patriotic songs, barbeques, apple pie, and community gatherings, Roanoke Island Festival Park invites visitors to participate in the community atmosphere of the festivities. Seating at the Pavilion is on the grass, so blankets and lawn chairs will add to the relaxed holiday environment. So, bring a picnic basket for all of your family and friends and join Roanoke Island Festival Park in a celebration of America.
