For 40 years, Santore has provided the anxiously awaited fireworks show in Ormond Beach exciting all the spectators.

Free shuttle service will be available from 7 to 10 p.m. to assist guests in getting back and forth across the Granada Bridge.

Pick-up and drop-off locations are at Beach Street and Granada Boulevard on the west side of the bridge, and at Riverside Drive and Granada Boulevard on east side of the bridge. We encourage you to get to your fireworks viewing location prior to the end of the shuttle service.
