The Northland is getting ready for another fun and exciting Fourth Fest, running from its 4 p.m. start through the acclaimed annual fireworks on Thursday, July 4, at Duluth’s Bayfront Festival Park. The family-friendly festival, featuring various concessions, vendors and great music, is free and open to the public. 

Legendary Paul Metsa and Friends takes the stage at 8:30 p.m. Metsa is an eight-time Minnesota Music Award winner. That headlining act will be preceded on stage by Booty and the Hoefish at 4:30, Slope City at 5:50 and local-favorite recording artist, Danny Frank & the Smoky Gold, at 7:10. 

Fourth Fest 2024 will conclude when the upper Midwest's most spectacular fireworks display lights up the Duluth harbor at 10 p.m.
