Last checked Oct. 9, 2026. This page is updated each year. The 2027 plans have not been announced, so it describes the 2026 celebrations, from the City of Palm Beach Gardens’ America 250 schedule (archived copy) and the Village of North Palm Beach’s Fourth of July page.
Palm Beach Gardens does not put on its own Fourth of July fireworks show. In 2026, for the nation’s 250th birthday, the city ran a string of free events from Memorial Day to July 4, and the closest public fireworks were about 7 miles east at the North Palm Beach Country Club. We will post the 2027 dates here as soon as the city and its neighbors announce them.

Tips from the village:
- Parking at the club was first come, first served. The village asked guests to carpool, use a rideshare, walk or come by golf cart.
- Bring lawn chairs or blankets. No umbrellas, coolers, outside food or drinks or pool floats at the pool.
- Personal fireworks, sparklers and grills were not allowed at the club.
- Dogs were welcome on a leash.
Fireworks rules at home
Florida law lets residents use consumer fireworks on three designated holidays: New Year’s Day, Jan. 1; Independence Day, July 4; and New Year’s Eve, Dec. 31. The statute does not override a properly recorded homeowners association covenant that bans fireworks, so check your community’s rules. It also does not override local fireworks regulations.
For safety:
- Keep a hose or a bucket of water nearby, and soak used fireworks before you throw them out.
- Never point fireworks at people, houses or dry brush, and never relight a dud.
- Keep pets inside.
What this means for you
- No city fireworks show is planned in Palm Beach Gardens; plan on North Palm Beach or a neighborhood party.
- City pool and fire station events usually fill up; watch for registration in June.
- At home, fireworks are legal on July 4 under state law, unless your HOA bans them.
