4th of July Celebration – Happy Birthday America!

Tune into Lite 96.1 FM and enjoy the fireworks with music This year’s 4th of July fireworks display has an added treat for viewers throughout the beachfront and most of the Beaches Area. The music played at the Sea Walk Pavilion during the fireworks display, usually heard only by those within the Sea Walk Pavilion event area, can be enjoyed by tuning your radio into Lite 96.1 FM WEJZ at 9:30 PM.

This is the first time the music will be simulcast at the event and over the radio for the fireworks music during the display. The fireworks show and soundtrack were created by Pyro Shows from La Follette, TN. The display will be shot off from the Jacksonville Beach Fishing Pier at precisely 9:30 PM.
