The Camden County Board of Commissioners and the City of Camden invite the public to attend the Freedom Festival and Fourth of July Fireworks Spectacular at Wiggins Waterfront Park on Friday, July 4. This event will feature community activities, live music, and a fireworks display over the Delaware River.

According to a PhillyVoice report, the R&B group The Spinners will headline Camden’s free Fourth of July celebration.

Here’s a look at the event schedule:

  • 6 p.m., Matt Cappy & Friends: South Jersey’s acclaimed instrumentalist, composer, and arranger will feature several friends accompanying his soul-filled trumpet melodies. 
  • 8 p.m., The Spinners: Representing one of the most enduring groups in the classic soul genre, The Spinners enjoy universal appeal thanks to a classic catalog of tunes that have made their way into the “Great American Songbook.” 
  • 9:30 p.m., Fireworks Show: Witness a fireworks spectacular over the Delaware River to conclude the event.

Attendees are encouraged to bring chairs and beach blankets to enjoy the performances and watch the fireworks from the park’s lawn.

“Freedom Festival is one of our most anticipated events each year, garnering thousands of visitors to our beautiful waterfront for an evening of music, fireworks, and fun,” said Commissioner Ed McDonnell, deputy director to the Camden County Department of Events and Community Outreach. “We encourage everyone to join us to celebrate Independence Day against the skyline of the nation’s first capital.”
