One of those events will be the U.S. Air Force Band of the West featuring the Corpus Christi Veterans Band presented by the Texas Jazz Festival Society. The free concert starts at 7 p.m. at the Selena Auditorium. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and seats are first come, first serve so get there early to hear a one-of-a-kind, patriotic experience.

While the 4^th will be packed with things to do, be sure to find a cool spot on the Bayfront and check out the Mayor’s Regatta Races at noon. Sailboats of all kinds will start at the Corpus Christi Yacht Club and race to the Texas State Aquarium and back. There will be three winners for all sails and three winners for working sails.
