Yorktown’s Fourth of July Celebration is a full day of red, white, and “woo-hoo!” Start the morning with a patriotic parade down Main Street, then relax by the river, shop local boutiques, and enjoy family-friendly fun all day long.

The evening festivities include a stirring bell-ringing ceremony, a patriotic concert featuring Good Shot Judy, and a grand fireworks finale lighting up the York River at 9:15 p.m. Pack your picnic blanket, wave your flag high, and celebrate freedom—Yorktown style!
