Solomons Business Association (SBA) is proud to continue this favorite tradition of celebrating July 4th with a spectacular firework display in Solomons on Monday, July 4th, 2021= Rain date TBA
The fireworks are back again in 2022, thanks to Kyle Webber who has launched the 2022 SaveSolomonsFireworks GoFundMe FB page.
At a cost of $40,000 plus, the fireworks display depends on your support to ensure that we can continue to provide the exceptional Solomons July 4th Fireworks that our visitors, guests and community have come to love.
From a marketing perspective Solomons Island welcomes crowds of over 10,000 people to watch the fireworks.
Our SBA website July 4th event information page can see up to 11,000 visits, all good opportunities to see and hear about your generosity as sponsors.
Kyle has great plans for hospitality tents, plenty of rest stops with a bank of port-a-potties, an audio system for announcing and thanking our sponsorship partners, and a rousing launch of the fireworks display with the National Anthem. More to come on this.
So why not join us to help make this a memorable celebration of survival, tenacity and freedom and enjoy all the benefits of a good marketing opportunity. The Sponsorship packages and the benefits are on the following page.
