The Best 4th of July Events on the Treasure Coast in 2026
The 4th of July events on the Treasure Coast in 2026 are bigger than any in recent memory, with communities across St. Lucie, Martin, and Indian River counties going all out for America’s 250th birthday. Whether you want a waterfront fireworks show, a classic minor league baseball game, a boat parade, or a neighborhood block-party atmosphere, there is a celebration within easy reach no matter where you are on the coast. Here is a full breakdown of what is happening and where.
Fort Pierce: Stars Over St. Lucie at Marina Square
Stars Over St. Lucie at Marina Square is the longest-running street party on the Treasure Coast, and the 2026 edition takes place on Saturday, July 4, starting at 6:00 p.m. in Downtown Fort Pierce. Fireworks launch at 9:00 p.m. over the waterfront. The event is a partnership between Main Street Fort Pierce and the City of Fort Pierce, and it draws one of the biggest crowds of any Independence Day celebration in the region.
Marina Square is one of those settings that earns its reputation. Reviewers consistently describe it as a beautiful waterfront venue with a lively tiki bar, good food, and the kind of open-air layout that works perfectly for a summer fireworks crowd. Arriving by 6:00 p.m. gives you time to settle in, grab food from vendors, and enjoy the live entertainment before the sky lights up.
