There wasn’t time or money enough to pull off the annual parade but the City of Everett will have fireworks over Port Gardner Bay at 10 PM on the 4th of July.

Live music, food trucks and a beer garden will happen at Legion Park in north Everett. Here’s the scoop on that from the folks at Visit Everett.

Come celebrate Everett’s July Fourth at Legion Memorial Park and enjoy live music, food trucks, a beer garden and fun for the whole family. The festival starts at 3 p.m. and ends after the fireworks (about 10:30 p.m.).

Special thanks to our presenting sponsor Peoples Bank for their support in making the this festival possible.

Here’s everything you need to know:

Ride the shuttle!  

First off, it’s important you know that there’s NO PARKING at Legion Memorial Park on the Fourth of July. This is to give people more space to spread out and allows us to park all of the necessary vehicles needed to keep the party safe and fun.

If you’re driving to the festival, park at Everett Community College and take the free shuttle; it runs every 5-minutes! Note: Due to Federal regulations face coverings are required on the shuttle. Everett Transit will have some masks available but you must wear a mask when riding the shuttle. The shuttle pickup at the college is in front of the Walt Price Fitness Center and it drops people off at the north end of Legion Memorial Park. When you’re ready to leave the festival, take the free shuttle back to your car. Simple, eh?

Please note! The shuttle is not running to Everett Station this year. 

Live music

Live music is back, baby. Here’s the lineup for this year’s Fourth of July

Beer garden

Fun for kids

Kids in tow? There’s fun for them, too. Imagine Children’s Museum will be at the festival with fun kid-friendly activities. Legion Memorial Park also has a great playground and ball fields. Have a lawn game the kids love? Bring it! Just don’t ruin anyone’s picnic with a stray frisbee, okay?

Tune into the soundtrack

Our media partners KXA/KRKO have helped put together a great soundtrack for the fireworks show. During the fireworks tune your radio to listen on KXA FM 101.1 or AM 1520.

In addition to Legion Park, Grand Avenue Park and the Port of Everett are both great viewing spots but they will both fill up quickly. Also remember there is a $5.00 parking fee at the Port of Everett.
