This is Racine’s biggest day of the year and Mahoffers On Main, located in the heart of Main Street, is where it all starts.
We open the doors bright and early at 6:30 AM so you can beat the crowds, grab breakfast and drinks, and claim your space before the city's biggest celebration kicks off.
At 8:30 AM, the energy shifts into full gear with the official Pre-Parade Sirens — when fire trucks, police cars, and emergency vehicles sound off and roll through downtown in a high-powered, crowd-roaring tribute that signals Racine’s Independence Day Parade is officially on.
And you’ll have the best seat in the house — cold drink in hand, surrounded by community, and fully fueled by Mahoffers’ all-day specials.

6:30 AM Opening – Start the day first with food, drinks, and front-row access.
