WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS YEARS FOURTH OF JULY FESTIVITIES
The Fourth of July is almost here in Mammoth Lakes and this year’s lineup has been super-sized to be worthy of America’s 250th birthday! A highlight of the day is the Mammoth Lakes Chamber of Commerce Fourth of July Parade, which begins at 11:00am and wraps up around 12:30pm. The parade begins at the intersection of Chateau Road and Old Mammoth Road and heads to Main Street, ending at the corner of Manzanita Road and Main Street. This year, the biggest change to the annual lineup is the closure of Main Street (SR 203) beginning at 9:00am through the end of the parade. By limiting pedestrian and vehicle interactions along Main Street during the busy pre-parade hours, organizers and public safety partners can create a safer environment for residents, visitors, participants, and staff. Additionally, the Forest Trail Road detour has been discontinued so access into and out of Mammoth Lakes between 9am-1pm will now occur via the Scenic Loop or via Meridian Blvd. prior to 10:00am. At 10:30am, the Footloose Freedom Mile is expecting a record number of runners on Old Mammoth Road. Other enhanced events on July 4 include the annual Lions Club breakfast now serving breakfast burritos and a new hospitality bar till 1:00pm. The Fourth of July Fireworks Spectacular at Crowley Lake has a custom designed “Sky Concert” show with 250 more fireworks than last year. Over 960 aerial shells will be propelled into the sky for a mesmerizing 17 minutes, beginning at 9:15pm. Admission to the Fourth of July Fireworks Show is once again only $30.00 per vehicle (excludes camping), and $5.00 for walk-ins (children 12 & under are FREE). The show will also simulcast live on KMMT 106.5 – tune in or stream online and enjoy! Don’t miss the biggest and best fireworks show in the Eastern Sierra.
