Bring your family and friends and enjoy a spectacular, FREE & fun-filled 4th of July celebration at The Lakefront (Venetian Gardens). The festivities officially kick off at 6pm, but the opening ceremony at the Lightning Baseball Game starts at 5:30pm.

Fabulous entertainment begins at 6pm on the Jenkins Auto Group Stage with Nathan Leslie followed by a concert at 7pm by The Wildflowers, America’s best Tom Petty tribute band!

There are tons of fun things to do for the kids too. A Free Kids Zone filled with bounce houses, slides, and other inflatables, plus the Dino Dig experience where kids can play on dinosaurs and even dig for fossils! There’s face painting, a balloon artist, juggler, stiltwalker and even a photo booth to capture memories and just have fun! There will even be FREE Ice Cream (while supply lasts). And of course, all sorts of festive foods will be available and fun vendors.

At 7:30 catch an amazing water ski show followed by the Largest Fireworks display in Lake County at 9:15pm. It’s great viewing from all around Venetian Cove or from your own boat at the Boat Tailgate Party located between Monkey Island and the boat ramp at Venetian Cove Marina.
