The fun continues with a carnival featuring kiddie amusement rides by Cushing Amusements, local business vendor booths, and a handmade craft fair. At 1pm gather at the gazebo to enjoy the music at the gazebo. There will be plenty of tables for enjoying refreshments from a variety of food trucks parked around the grounds. 

Live music on the main stage starts at 6pm. Come early to save your space in the field. Try out the delicious food from the many food trucks and enjoy the open space under the stars. At dusk, settle in for the grand finale…a fantastic fireworks display!

While most of the events are free on the 4th, there is a charge for food trucks and the carnival. A portion of these sales are sent back to the community in the form of free programs and events. Thank you for your support.

There are sponsorship opportunities still available to help support this wonderful community celebration. Contact us today to discuss ways you can help! Support Culture in Newton
