Fairborn is the place to be to celebrate our nation's independence. We kick things off on July 3rd at 4pm with a Party Downtown with various food, crafts, and vendors, which lasts until 10pm. Then on July 4th at 10am, we hold our annual parade from Central Avenue to Main Street featuring many civic groups and community floats. This is a fun event for the entire family.

After the parade, the party continues at 4pm back at Community Park with food trucks and fireworks presented by Rozzi.
