Summer is here and what better way to celebrate the 4th than a trip to your favorite city in the South? Whether you are coming in from out of town or you’re a local with family stopping by, put on a show for the visitors of the “Hostess City.” We have all the bases covered for celebrating Independence Day - Savannah style. Whether you plan on a backyard cookout or prefer a rooftop fireworks display, let Lucky Savannah be your host.

1. Family Cookout

Some would argue it's not July 4th Weekend without burgers on the barbecue. Did you know we offer several historic downtown Savannah vacation homes with backyards, courtywards, and outdoor grills? Click here for a complete list of vacation rentals for families/groups with a private courtyard perfect for grilling and celebrating 4th of July weekend in style.

2. Riverstreet Fireworks Display

If you want to be in the hustle and bustle, River Street is the place to be this 4th of July. Go for a stroll on the cobblestone riverfront and grab a hot praline from the Savannah Candy Kitchen while you wait for the Annual Savannah Riverstreet Fireworks Celebration! Find downtown Savannah vacation rentals near River Street.

3. Tybee Island Beach Day

Nothing says 4th of July weekend like a trip to the beach. Click here for a complete list of vacation rentals. Did you know Tybee’s Fireworks Celebration happens on the 3rd, rather than the 4th? Don’t forget your beach chairs, coolers, and sunscreen. Spend the day on the beach until sunset and enjoy the grand finale oceanside.

4. Downtown Cocktails on the Roof

Celebrate the 4th in style with a Rooftop Picnic at The Grove. A rooftop bar never ceases to disappoint, especially with a full 360 view of the Savannah sunst. Carve out time in your travel plans for burgers, beer, live music, followed by a rooftop view of the fireworks.

5. Savannah Riverboat Cruise

You haven’t truly seen Savannah until you’ve seen her riverside. Catch the 4th of July Fireworks on a Savannah Riverboat Cruise Tour. All-You-Can-Eat Southern fare and a waterfront view of the fireworks celebration? It can't be beat!

6. Savannah Bananas Baseball Game

We can’t think of a better way to celebrate our Independence Day then a good ol’ fashion baseball game. The local Savannah Bananas baseball games are a fun, family-friendly event located in Grayson stadium; just 5-10 minutes outside of the Downtown Historic District. Grab the All-You-Can-Eat tickets and enjoy unlimited hot dogs, hamburgers, snacks, and drinks. Finish the night off with stadium fireworks! It just doesn’t get more American than that.
