July 4 Community Parade

Celebrate the 4th of July with a good old-fashioned neighborhood parade!

Marchers will gather starting at 11:30 at the Noriega Sunset Lounge parade through Sunset Dunes Park with marching bands, fire truck fanfare, and plenty of neighborhood joy. We'll end the parade at Kirkham with bounce houses, face painting, live tunes, bubble magic, and fresh apple pie.

Because nothing says freedom like fog, friendship, and fun by the beach.

Yay for art in all its incredible forms!
