A. 4th of July Fireworks

June 15, 2026, Regular City Council Meeting · 2026-06-15 · agenda_item

The City of Destin is planning a 4th of July fireworks and drone show. This event is currently under review, with a proposed plan for logistics and funding being developed. The project involves securing a shorebird permit and potentially extending a fireworks contract for one year. A drone show add-on of $10,000 is being considered, with the Parks Foundation potentially providing these funds. Future steps will include finalizing logistics, identifying a funding source for the drone show, and inviting representatives from the drone show company and the Parks Foundation to an upcoming meeting. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in areas such as event planning, fireworks, drone operation, and potentially site preparation or security could find opportunities. Engaging early in this planning phase allows businesses to understand the project scope and potential needs before final bids and permits are issued.
