Marina del Rey Annual Fourth of July Fireworks

The traditional fireworks extravaganza over the main channel in Marina del Rey will be presented on Wednesday, July 4th, starting promptly at 9pm. This event is sponsored by the Los Angeles County Department of Beaches and Harbors. The fireworks are choreographed to patriotic music, which will be broadcasted in sync with the pyrotechnic display over FM radio KXLU, 88.9 on the dial. The music will be relayed over loudspeakers in Chace Park for those watching there. Another premier location to view the fireworks is at Fisherman’s Village at 13755 Fiji Way, near the barge from which the fireworks will be shot.
