This family-friendly evening at Parlor City Plaza is packed with patriotic fun, great food, music, and a spectacular fireworks show to end the night. The festivities begin with a 2.5-mile self-guided “United We Stride” walk, perfect for families, friends, and anyone who wants to start the evening with a little movement and community spirit. The Wells County Historical Museum will be open for visitors from 2-4pm and after that, the plaza comes alive with food trucks from 5–9 PM (Yergy's BBQ, Kenzie's Coneys, Hideaway) offering plenty of tasty options while you enjoy the celebration. Don't forget to snap a selfie at the patriotic photo stop starting at 5PM. At 6 PM, the excitement builds with the Patriotic Parade, with participants proudly showing off their red, white, and blue spirit. From creatively decorated vehicles to fun, festive displays, this parade is all about celebrating unity in a patriotic (non-political) way—so expect plenty of energy, creativity, and hometown charm. Parade entries are now being accepted, and everyone is invited to join the fun! Participation is completely free, and we welcome all vehicle-based entries, including cars, trucks, golf carts, classic cars, tractors, motorcycles, Jeeps, and more. Show off your patriotic spirit by decorating your ride in red, white, and blue! Three $50 cash prizes will be awarded for the best-decorated vehicles, so get creative and help make this year's parade one to remember. To reserve your spot, contact the Mayor's Office at Katie.sprunger@blufftonindiana.gov. Kids will love the face painting from 6–8 PM, and the fun continues with roaming costumed historians bringing the past to life throughout the evening. From there, enjoy live music from 7–9 PM by Classic Rock Experience, delivering high-energy classic hits that will have everyone singing along and soaking in the summer celebration. The night wraps up with a big fireworks finale at 10 PM, lighting up the sky above Bluffton Schools and providing the perfect ending to a festive community celebration. Bring your lawn chairs, gather your friends and family, and come out for a fun-filled evening of community pride, music, food, and fireworks. It’s the perfect way to celebrate the 4th of July together!
