Event Description

Every year, City Tavern teams up with Legendary Automotive & Truck Service to host our annual 4th of July Chili Dog Eating Competition & Block Party to benefit local military heroes who have served for our freedom.
This fun-packed July 4th Block Party kicks off at 4pm and will feature food by celebrity Chef Brian Duffy, live music by DJ Juan Gomez & DJ Mickey McFLy, dancing, drinks, fun, and fireworks!
Proceeds to benefit the local American Legion Post #38 right here in downtown Ft. Myers, which provides food, services, and basic necessities–from household items to money for the electric bill–to local military veterans in need and relies solely on donations.
Special event highlights include the Chili Dog Eating Contest hosted/emceed by celebrity chef Brian Duffy at 6pm, followed by a giant check presentation to the American Legion Post #38, which serves an estimated 200 local veterans each month. Fireworks at 9pm!
