4th of July: Fins, Fireworks & Frosty Beers

Join us Tuesday, July 4, as we celebrate the birthday of the land of the free and the home of the brave at Mississippi Aquarium. Fins, fireworks and frosty beers at the Aquarium will set fourth after-hours featuring all of your favorite aquatic wonders plus a pop-up beer garden! The beer garden will feature a sampling of craft selections on tap for a suggested donation, provided by the generous support of F.E.B. Distributing, Chandeleur Island Brewing Company and Lost Spring Brewing. At twilight’s last gleaming, end the night on our lawn for prime viewing of the City of Gulfport’s firework display.
