Fourth of July fireworks postponed until December 31

In light of the increased spread of COVID-19 in recent weeks, the City of Myrtle Beach is postponing the Fourth of July fireworks.  We need to do all we can at the moment to encourage social distancing.  Rather than risk that people might gather too closely to watch the fireworks show on Saturday night, we are postponing the show until December 31, when we can celebrate the New Year with a bang.  We thank the sponsors who stepped forward to make the show possible, McDonald's and Budweiser.  Their continued support for this decision is appreciated.   As a reminder, the sale, use or possession of fireworks by individuals is illegal in the City of Myrtle Beach.  A violation is a misdemeanor, subject to a fine of up to $500 and/or 30 days upon conviction.  Please celebrate the Fourth of July with respect for all.
