The City of Westlake has announced the return of FourthFest, presented by Xfinity, taking place on Friday, July 4, from 5 to 9 p.m. along Kingfisher Blvd.
Residents and guests from across the region are invited to enjoy an evening of live music, family fun, delicious food and fireworks — all free of charge.
The 2025 festivities will feature live music by Catabella Music, covering Latin, Top 40, country, rock and disco, followed by the Rock Show, a high-energy six-piece tribute band.
There will also be a variety of food trucks, the Game Go Truck, the Ultimate Foam Experience, bounce houses and obstacle courses, face painting and family games.
Local market vendors will be offering frozen treats, baked goods, arts, crafts and more. A dazzling fireworks finale will close out the night.
The national anthem will be performed by Leeza Keegan, a talented young vocalist and four-year member of the Young Singers of the Palm Beaches. Keegan has appeared multiple times as both a soloist and choir member on the main stage of the Kravis Center, and she has performed with the Palm Beach Symphony, the Pops Orchestra of the Palm Beaches and more. A student at the Rosarian Academy, Keegan will begin middle school in the fall.
“FourthFest is one of our most anticipated community traditions,” Mayor JohnPaul O’Connor said. “It brings together friends, neighbors and families to celebrate our nation’s independence in a safe, festive and welcoming environment.”
Food trucks and local vendors will serve up crowd favorites throughout the evening, and guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets to enjoy the outdoor festivities.
Admission and parking are free, with access and parking available off Seminole Pratt Whitney Road via Town Center Parkway North and South. ADA-accessible parking will be located on Kingfisher Blvd. Coolers, barbecue grills, personal fireworks and cooking appliances are not permitted.
FourthFest will be held in the field across from the Westlake Adventure Park Lodge (5490 Kingfisher Blvd.), between Town Center Parkway North and South.
