Here's where to watch Fourth of July fireworks in Jacksonville this Friday and what to know if you want to shoot off some fireworks of your own.

Jacksonville Beach is scheduled to host the Super Girl Surf Pro contest, along with live music performances this weekend. News4JAX reached out to organizers to find out if the schedule will change.

No significant problems have been reported at local beaches, other than when Jacksonville Beach police said they found a murder suspect, wanted out of Pennsylvania, hanging out near the dunes.

The U.S. Navy Blue Angels flew over Jacksonville Beach for a final performance at the 2023 Sea and Sky Air Show Sunday.

Jacksonville will have two official fireworks shows on July 4, 2025: one downtown and one at the beach. Shooting fireworks is legal in Florida on the Fourth of July, New Year's Eve and New Year's Day.
