Fourth of July in Sonoma

From live music on our front lawn to Sonoma Plaza’s annual Hometown Parade and fireworks show, gather the family and join us for an exciting 4th of July celebration all weekend long.

4th of July Parade

Named one of the best 4th of July celebrations in the country by Travel+Leisure Magazine & Yahoo News, Sonoma’s 4th of July Celebration is a tradition that brings the community together and honors our great nation’s independence. The Parade begins at 10am winding its way around the town’s historic Plaza with around 60 entries. After the parade, enjoy an old-fashioned festival with food, drink, and game booths by Sonoma’s non-profit organizations. All proceeds raised from the festival benefit Sonoma’s nonprofit community.

Fireworks Show

The 4th of July festival concludes around 5 pm when all eyes shift to the skies at dusk above General Vallejo’s field for the spectacular fireworks show that lasts approximately 30 minutes.
