Entertainment
Tyson Brothers
The Tyson Brothers will serve as the opening act for this year's Fireworks Spectacular and will take the stage at 6 p.m.
Since 2016, the Tyson Brothers have been building a reputation as great songwriters and musicians, set apart by their high energy live performances. The Tyson Brothers is spearheaded by Tristan and Brooks Tyson. The two released their first demo project in August of 2019 at ages 18 and 15. Over the years, the band has grown as the brothers have added Holten Barnwell, John Fleischer, and Robert Horne to the group.
Band of Oz
The Band of Oz will headline the celebration and take the stage at just after 7 p.m.
One of the southeast’s most popular beach music bands and a 1997 Beach Music Hall of Fame inductee, The Band of Oz was formed in 1967 as a part-time band playing fraternity parties and high school proms all over the South. In 1977 the band went on the road full time. Since then, the band has made an exceptional name for itself throughout the Southeast by playing the top clubs and corporate parties and getting excellent reviews along the way. For several years the group has been a guest on most of the major beach concerts in the Carolinas, Virginia and Georgia.
Performing well over 200 shows each year, The Band of Oz features a full horn section to total a dynamic eight-member group.
Fireworks
But what about the fireworks? Not to worry! This year's fireworks show will be bigger and better than ever and guaranteed to provide a thrilling end to an unforgettable evening.
The fireworks show will begin around 9:30 p.m.
