The 2018 Niceville fireworks will be launched over Boggy Bayou from Niceville’s custom-made barge anchored in the bayou between Lincoln Park in Valparaiso and Lions Park in Niceville.

Fireworks will light up the skies in Niceville over Boggy Bayou on the evening of July 4, 2018 in celebration of America’s Independence Day. The annual Niceville fireworks show is traditionally the most popular Fourth of July display in the area.

The 2018 Niceville fireworks will be launched over Boggy Bayou from Niceville’s custom-made barge anchored in the bayou between Lincoln Park in Valparaiso and Lions Park in Niceville. The fireworks begin shortly after dark; typically about  8:45 p.m. It is best to arrive early to avoid traffic.

Pre-show music, emanating from large speakers on the barge, begins around 6 p.m. The music can be enjoyed from both Lion’s Park in Niceville and Lincoln Park in Valparaiso, the most popular public viewing areas.

Niceville’s colorful fireworks display is one of the longest-running in the area. More than a ton of fireworks typically are fired, and the show always includes an explosive, crowd-pleasing finale.

The annual fireworks show is funded by donations, fund-raising events, t-shirt sales, aluminum can recycling, pork butt sales, and the Fireworks Trust Fund. The annual cost is near $25,000 or more.
