It's Back! Benicia’s 4th Of July Celebration

After a two-year hiatus, Benicia’s beloved two-day 4th of July celebration is returning in a big way. When you think "4th of July," barbecues, fireworks and parades come to mind. And that’s what you can expect this year. A fun filled parade, family activities, live music, a drone sky show and, of course, fireworks. The barbeque is up to you!

JULY 3RD

The much-loved Torchlight Parade will stretch along First Street and it will include everything fun in Benicia: dancers, floats, bands, local groups, and all kinds of entertainment. The parade begins at 6:30pm and lasts about two hours. This year, the parade is followed by Pedrotti Ace Hardware’s Centennial celebration which starts at 8pm with rock band East Bay Mudd on the mainstage at the waterfront. As soon as it’s dark, a spectacular drone performance begins.
