St. Augustine celebrates Fourth of July with fireworks and fun

Posted

First Coast residents and visitors celebrated the Fourth of July in downtown St. Augustine with a fireworks show over the historic bayfront, a live concert and more.

People lined Avenida Menendez, the Bridge of Lions and the Plaza de la Constitucion as fireworks shot in the sky over the waters of Matanzas Bay. Local band The All-Star Orchestra performed earlier in the evening. 

Once the fireworks concluded, residents and visitors continued the fun of the holiday, playing with sparklers and visiting downtown restaurants and pubs for a bite to eat and cold drinks.
