Independence Day Celebration

Presented by Texas Capital | Official Independence Day Celebration of the City of Dallas

There is no better way to celebrate America’s birthday than spending it in Klyde Warren Park!

Saturday, June 28, 2025 | 7 – 9:30 PM

Enjoy summer treats from a variety of food trucks, live music from Emerald City All-Stars and DJ Richy Smart, family-fun programming and the grand finale — fireworks, presented by Honorary Chairs Linda and Mitch Hart, lighting up the Dallas skyline. This event is free and open to the public, and seating is first-come, first-served. We hope you will join us as we salute the USA from Dallas’ town square!
