The cities of Fitzgerald and Enigma are set to host their annual Independence Day celebrations Friday, bringing people together for food, festivities, and the flash of fireworks in honor of America’s legacy.

Fitzgerald’s festival will kick off at 6 p.m. in Paulk Park, featuring a performance by the Page Brothers Band, a musical group blending bluesy rock with Georgia soul. Watermelon, hot dogs, chips, drinks, and other refreshments will be available for free as supplies last, and fireworks are scheduled to be set off at 9:15 p.m.
