Gulf Coast’s Premier 4th of July Celebration Continues at The Wharf
March 16, 2009 - Orange Beach, AL -
The Gulf Coast’s premier 4th of July celebration will continue this year
with The Wharf’s 4th Annual “Fourth at The Wharf” event. What has been
called the largest and most spectacular celebration in the Southeast,
this annual event has become a tradition for local residents and
vacationers. Each year, thousands fill The Amphitheater at The Wharf for
an evening of rousing, patriotic entertainment. This year, The Wharf has
partnered with Grammy nominated, country sensation Montgomery Gentry for
a live concert at The Amphitheater at The Wharf on Saturday, July 4th as
a part of The Wharf’s Pepsi Star Series.
The concert will include a live performance by
the country duo, as well as patriotic songs and dedications. The “Fourth
at The Wharf” presents the grandest fireworks extravaganza on the
coastal Panhandle, and this Fourth will be no exception. The fireworks’
display schedule is being kept unannounced and confidential, adding an
exciting surprise for the concert audience, visitors, and residents of
The Wharf.
Tickets for this event go on sale in the coming weeks and may be purchased online at Ticketmaster.com, by phone at 1-800-745-3000, or at The Amphitheater Box Office Monday through Friday 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. or at The Dock Store at The Marina.
