Red Wing is the place to be this July 4th! Check out all of the fun festivities for the whole family!

Let’s Celebrate America’s Semiquincentennial with a firework display at 10:00pm! 🇺🇸
Grab your family, rally your friends, and join us right here in beautiful Red Wing as we celebrate a massive milestone—America’s 250th anniversary!

We are keeping our good ol’ All-American traditions alive and well. Pack up your favorite picnic baskets, grab your coziest blankets, and head down to the riverfront. Secure your favorite patch of green space in any of our gorgeous waterfront or river view parks for an afternoon packed with community, laughter, and social fun.

Fireworks will launch from Hager City, Wisconsin lighting up the Mississippi River. ✨🇺🇸 ! Find your perfect spot, look to the sky, and get ready for a breathtaking display at 10:00pm. 💥

Levee Park is the Place to be! 📍
This will be the best seat in the house and the ultimate gathering area for the day’s festivities. Here is what we have lined up to keep the entire family entertained before the firework display:

🎵 Live Music: Catch incredible tunes filling the air right by the Gazebo area in Levee Park starting around 4:00pm

🥄 Pie Eating Contest for kids 4:00pm: brought to you by the St James Hotel.

⛵️ Boat parade 8:00pm: Bay Point park to the Bridge

🎨 Nostalgic Fun & Games: Hopscotch and freeform chalk art. Encourage your artistic buddies to meet up, collaborate, and share their talents right on the pavement. Let’s paint the sidewalk in the park red, white, and blue!

Spread the word, RSVP to stay updated on event announcements, and let’s make this historic 4th of July one for the record books. We can’t wait to celebrate with you, Red Wing! 🔴⚪🔵
