The Lauderdale-By-The-Sea Fourth of July Celebration is one of the biggest family events in South Florida. With lots of things to do for both the kids and adults, the beachside party is a fun day for everyone.

It all kicks off with a parade at 10 a.m. at El Prado Park in Lauderdale-By-The-Sea. It starts on El Mar Drive, led by the Broward County Sheriff's Office in their police cruisers and fire trucks. Lady Liberty and Uncle Sam are also of course in the parade announcing the celebration of our nation's birthday and passing out candy to the kids (make sure they bring a bag).

Don't forget a bathing suit either- the park is right on the beach and there's a good chance the firemen will have some fun with the fire hoses too. Other fun-filled kids activities include waterslides, face painting and music. Adults can chill by the beach with a DJ, BBQ and live entertainment performances. 

The celebration is until 3 p.m. and fireworks will be shot off from the park at 9. Stick around and grab some dinner at one of the many cute restaurants in Lauderdale-By-The-Sea while you wait for the nighttime extravaganza in the sky. 

Location: 4500 El Mar Dr, Lauderdale-By-The-Sea, FL 33308.
