Events for July 4th!
Parade Theme: "Celebrate California"
The year 2025 signifies a milestone in California's history, marking 175 years since its admission to the Union in 1850.
In honor of this occasion, our parade theme for 2025 is "Celebrate California".
This theme offers a broad spectrum of creative possibilities, including the state's coastal culture, the gold rush era, the Golden Gate Bridge, the towering redwoods, Hollywood, Disneyland, the California poppy, the agricultural industry, and more!
All parade participants who incorporate elements of California into their entries will be eligible for additional awards.
