Jaycees Freedom Festival

The Nacogdoches Jaycees

More

Brookshire Brothers Freedom Fest presented by metro PCS will once again be offering all the sights, sounds and tastes of an old-fashioned, community-wide Independence Day celebration on July 4 in Festival Plaza. Families are invited to enjoy delicious festival food, children’s activities, The Brookshire Brothers “Star- Spangled Banner Burger Cook-Off,” and live music by local bands. The evening will culminate in a dazzling fireworks display sponsored by the Nacogdoches Jaycees beginning 30 minutes after dark. Admission is free.

“Freedom Fest has something for the whole family to enjoy from excellent food to show-stopping fireworks,” said Melissa Sanford of the Nacogdoches Convention and Visitors Bureau. “What better way to celebrate our nation’s independence than to share it with family and friends at a safe and fun patriotic festival.”

Freedom Fest will take place from 5 to 9:30 p.m. in Festival Plaza, located just south of the downtown square in Nacogdoches. Guests are encouraged to bring their lawn chairs and blankets to Festival Plaza. Coolers and picnic baskets are welcome, but glass bottles and alcoholic beverages are not allowed.

A fun children’s area will keep the kids entertained with a dunking booth, slides, moonwalks, and trike races.

Other popular locations for viewing the fireworks are the University Mall, Williamsburg Plaza, Downtown Square, Nacogdoches County Courthouse, Coy Simms Softball Park, Brookshire Brothers on South Street and the Hotel Fredonia.
