Crystal Coast Theater & Shows Events - 2026 Schedule

The Morehead City Waterfront Fireworks celebration is a popular annual event that draws residents and visitors to the scenic downtown waterfront for an evening of family-friendly entertainment and a spectacular fireworks display over the water. Held along the Morehead City waterfront, the event provides a festive opportunity for the community to gather and enjoy one of the Crystal Coast’s most picturesque settings while celebrating a special holiday or community occasion.

Beaufort’s Annual Fourth of July Parade is a longstanding Independence Day tradition that brings residents, visitors, civic organizations, businesses, and community groups together in the heart of historic Beaufort for a celebration of patriotism and small-town coastal charm. Held each July 4 in downtown Beaufort, the parade has become one of the community’s most anticipated annual events, drawing spectators to Front Street to enjoy festive floats, decorated vehicles, marching groups, local organizations, and plenty of red, white, and blue spirit.
