4th of July Festival & Fireworks
July 4
Come to Crescent City, California for the Largest Fireworks Show & 4th of July Festival in Northern California
Stay tuned for more updates coming for the July 4th Festival in 2023
We celebrate big for the 4th of July! The celebration starts with a parade through downtown — the lineup starts at 8:30 am and the parade starts at 10 am. The parade route is H Street and 9th Street before winding its way down to 3rd Street, up to K Street, and over to Front Street. Due to the generosity of our local sponsors, the parade is free to all of those who enter the parade as well as all spectators. Download the parade entry form to participate!
Enjoy a fun run (see below), live music, food, a beer garden, arts and crafts, merchandise and vendors all day long at Beachfront Park followed by the biggest fireworks show on the north coast (starts at dusk.) Watching the fireworks over the Battery Point Lighthouse is an amazing sight to see! Fireworks can be seen from all beaches in Crescent City.
