FORT MYERS, Fla. (June 24, 2025) - The Fort Myers Mighty Mussels are hosting a three-day Independence Day celebration that includes a Fourth of July Family Picnic Special, fireworks extravaganza and classic all-American eats.

This year, we're adding a patriotic soundtrack and family picnic ambiance to make this truly a memorable experience for fans."
