  • Jun 27, 2025

Independence Day is almost here so it's time to start planning a weekend of fireworks and fun! This holiday is the perfect time to get out to your favorite park to have a picnic, take a hike, or just find a shaded spot to read a book. If fun events and fireworks are what you’re after, Cincinnati Parks is excited to offer THREE different 4th of July Celebrations for you and your family to enjoy. Check them out below: 

July 3rd | Inwood Park All American Block Party + Fireworks | 7pm - 10pm 

Come celebrate the 4th of July at Inwood Park! Games, Picnics, Kona Ice, and Fireworks to end the night! 

July 4th | 59th Ault Park Fireworks | 11am – 10pm 

Join us on July 4th for a day filled with family fun and an evening celebrating the birth of our nation. The Ault Park Fireworks is one of the largest free community events, attracting 5,000 residents to our beautiful Ault Park. A Children’s Parade is held at 11:00 am with decorated bikes and strollers. The evening-long event will feature live music, food trucks, a beer vendor and a spectacular 20-minute fireworks display by Rozzi’s Famous Fireworks. Click here for more information. 

July 5th | All American Birthday Bash | 2pm - 10pm 

Rev up your engines and join us at Sawyer Point in Cincinnati, Ohio, on July 5th for an unforgettable showcase of American cars and more! From muscle cars to cutting-edge innovations, immerse yourself in the heart of automotive excellence. Enjoy the rhythm of the road with live music from Crown Watts, The Classic Rock Experience, and Thunderstruck! Plus, end your evening enjoying the spectacular fireworks show! 

While one of our busiest and most fun, unfortunately, the 4th of July is one of the biggest weekends of the year for litter and debris being left behind. We want everyone to come out and enjoy our parks, but when you do please do your part to keep our public greenspaces clean and safe for everyone to enjoy.  

Park Rules While celebrating please remember: 

  1. It is prohibited for individuals to set off fireworks at parks. 

  1. Throw all trash in trash cans. Please do not litter. 

  1. Do not set up tents, or any set-up that requires staking the ground. 

From all of us at Cincinnati Parks, Happy Birthday USA! We wish you a safe and enjoyable birthday party.
