Fireworks, Food, and Fun During Americas 250 Celebration Friday Evening In Century

July 3, 2026

An America 250/Independence Day fireworks show will be held Friday in Century, following a late afternoon and evening of food and events, including a flyover.

The event, a joint celebration presented by the towns of Century and Flomaton, will be held at Anthony Pleasant Park and the adjacent Showalter Park. There will be food trucks, arts and crafts vendors, and fireworks after dark.

The Commemorative Air Force will perform a vintage aircraft flyover at 5 p.m. with a Soviet-built Yak, a Beechcraft T-34, and possibly other aircraft.
