City of Valparaiso 4th of July Celebration

This Fourth of July, we’re going bigger than ever to celebrate America’s 250th birthday — and we want you there! Join us at Urschel Field on Saturday, July 4th for an evening packed with incredible food, live country music, and a once-in-a-generation fireworks experience. Kick things off at 5:00 pm when 35+ food trucks roll in with everything from tacos and hot dogs to fire oven pizza, BBQ, seafood, and ice cream. There is truly something for every craving. Grab your favorites, find a great spot, and settle in as opening acts set the mood. At 6:30 pm, the Nashville Electric Company Country Band takes the stage for a high-energy patriotic performance that will have everyone on their feet. Then, at approximately 9:15 pm, look to the sky. This year’s America 250 Enhanced Fireworks Show is something truly special — an action-packed, dazzling display designed exclusively for this milestone anniversary.
