Fireworks, barbecues, and family picnics—the usual sight in Miami on the Fourth of July. There is so much more to do in Miami that is just as fun and as free as watching a traditional fireworks show. Here is a list of the top local attractions for the family this Independence Day:
4th of July Parade – Key Biscayne
You might want to head down to Key Biscayne’s 4th of July Parade, if you’re up to see creative floats, stilt-walkers, and marching bands. And of course, you can’t celebrate 4th of July without the fireworks. The best part of this all-day long celebration is that it’s free to watch. If you’re looking for a tour to explore the natural beauty of Biscayne Bay, head aboard and take the Biscayne Bay Sightseeing Cruise.
America’s Birthday Bash – Bayfront Park
If watching fireworks is what you’re looking forward to this year, the best spot to watch them is at America’s Birthday Bash at Bayfront Park. This free extravaganza features a free Kids Zone, live music, games, and of course, an amazing fireworks show. America’s Birthday Bash is free to attend and it’s great for everyone.
Miami Beach Fire on the 4th Festival – North Shore Park Bandshell
Those of you looking for some family fun, the Miami Beach Fire would be perfect for you to attend. This popular all-day long festival features live music, food trucks, and even some fun yoga. Another free and beautiful spot in Miami to watch the fireworks is here at the beach. Miami traffic is not as fun as watching the fireworks, so plan to arrive early to find some good parking and a gorgeous spot by the sand.

If you’re looking to listen to some music this Independence Day, enjoy a concert by the Greater Miami Symphonic Band. There will be plenty of tasty treats and a spectacular fireworks show at 9PM. This event is held on the Golf Course, so you’ll be watching the fireworks with a remarkable view.
