Info SCVParade.com 

The Santa Clarita Valley is lucky to have an established, popular Fourth of July Parade held annually in downtown Newhall. 

This year’s event, themed “Home is Where the Hart is…Welcome Hart Park!,” honors not only our nation’s independence but also the officially welcoming of William S. Hart Park as the city’s 40th park. 

The parade starts at the Newhall roundabout, traveling north on Main Street, west on Lyons Avenue onto Orchard Village Road and concluding on Dalbey Drive at Avenida Ignacio. 

Fireworks 

Because of the danger of high fire potential, it is best to leave the fireworks on the shelf and let the professionals handle the pyrotechnics. All personal fireworks, including the “safe and sane” variety, are illegal in the Santa Clarita Valley. 

9 p.m. Stevenson Ranch Fourth of July Celebration 

Richard Rioux Park, 26233 Faulkner Dr., 91381 

This Fourth of July celebration and fireworks show will offer a special community celebration for the residents of Stevenson Ranch. The park will open at 6 p.m. and the fireworks display will begin around 9 p.m. The event features entertainment and food trucks. Bring your own chairs, blankets and picnic baskets. 

9:15 p.m. The Spirit of America Fireworks Show

Join the City of Santa Clarita for the annual Fourth of July Fireworks Show! Close out Independence Day with a brilliant firework show over at the Valencia Town Center.

The park will have fireworks displays from July 4 through the 6th. On the 4th, you may be able to see both the city and amusement park’s displays at the same time. 

If you are inside the park, the best view is from the Full Throttle Plaza, DC Universe and Main Gate Plaza. The park is also offering a special VIP fireworks viewing that includes reserved viewing, two bites from Max’d Out Mac & Screaming Spuds and unlimited drinks at the Coca-Cola® refill station.
