Independence Day Parade
JUL. 4 | 10:30 AM
Downtown Highland Park
Celebrate your American story and love of history at the City's Independence Day Parade! Wear your Americana best to help bring the America250 theme to life. From patriotic floats to historical characters, incredible music from the Brass Animals to precision marching from the Elite Striders Drill Team & Drum Corps, to interactive bubble foam, can't-miss vintage vehicles, and so much more, this year's Independence Day Parade will bring our community together for a special celebration of our country and our values! Special this year, the City appreciates the participation of the U.S. Army in our Independence Day parade.
The parade will follow the same route as in 2025, stepping off at St. Johns & Laurel, turning onto Green Bay before heading west on Central, ending at Sunset Woods Park.
