On what’s arguably the most festive day on the island, Coronado’s Independence Day celebration is not to be missed. This year, in conjunction with America’s 250th, the two hour Coronado 4th of July parade will enthrall and entertain the young, old, and everyone in between. Beginning at 10 am, over 130 parade entrants will march, walk, and drive down Orange Avenue from 1st Street to Churchill Place. We’ll see you on Orange Ave.!

What’s noteworthy is I know the guy who’s going to sing the national anthem right ahead of the motorcycle police. He’s in my head and I am he. LOL
Will the parade be on TV?
It will be live-streamed on the City of Coronado’s YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/@CityofCoronado92118
