Fabulous Phoenix Fourth offers fun and fireworks in a safe, family-friendly atmosphere. The premier central Phoenix Independence Day celebration is a long-held tradition that continues once again this year with live music, a Kids Zone, inflatables and a world-class Patriotic Program that honors our nation’s heroes.

A Classic Car exhibit will be onsite giving car enthusiasts a chance to check out some very cool vintage rides and the Splash Zone returns as well, offering a place to cool off from the heat. Lots of food vendors will have festival favorites on hand and a variety of merchants - over 50! - will have booths with unique products and services for you to peruse. New this year is a Veterans Village, where there will be finance, health and family workshops, information regarding jobs for veterans and other resources.

Fabulous Phoenix Fourth will be held at Steele Indian School Park on 300 E. Indian School Rd. near 3rd Street. The METRO Light Rail will have a special schedule on the day of the event, making it a breeze to get to and from the park. The party takes place on Saturday, July 4, 2015, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. and it’s free to enter. Fireworks start at 9:30 p.m.
