JULY 4TH EVENTS
4TH OF JULY PARADE

Downtown Glen Ellyn
Everybody loves a parade whether it is for the music, floats, or nostalgia of the red, white and blue. Come and watch your neighbors march with Pride! In 2025 the Parade will be in downtown Glen Ellyn.
Staging area will be surrounding Glenbard West High School. The parade will march westbound on Crescent Blvd from the high school and continue northbound on Main St, and continue east on Linden St to Lake Ellyn Park.
Chairs can be placed along the parade route no sooner than the day prior.
The Parade announcer and Reserved VIP Parade Reviewing Stadium Seating is available at 479 Main Street for ticketed guests.
We are looking for community groups to register to march and be a parade entry!
