Celebrate the Fourth of July in Eureka!
Join us in Old Town on Saturday, July 4, for a day filled with activities for everyone. This year's celebration is especially meaningful. You may know it's America's 250th anniversary, but did you know it's also Eureka's 170th anniversary?!
The day begins with an Opening Ceremony at 10 AM in Clarke Plaza, followed by a festival throughout Old Town until 5 PM. You can expect live music, local vendors, arts and crafts, contests, bounce house, Madaket Bay Cruises, speeder car rides, and so much more. Be sure to check out the new Touch-a-Truck area on E Street and enjoy family-friendly games in the Activity Zone.
The celebration moves to the waterfront from 5 PM to 9 PM, where a DJ will keep the fun going before the annual fireworks show lights up Humboldt Bay at 10 PM.
