New Jersey July 4th Events, Parades, Fireworks & More

We are currently updating and adding events for 2019 4th of July events in New Jersey. 

We are always excited for the Fourth of July in New Jersey! Bike parades, fireworks, barbecues and festivals usher in the official start of Summer in the Garden State. Families and friends get together and it’s time to get outside whether it’s by the ocean or a lake or your downtown or your backyard. Even though this year the holiday falls mid week, you’ll still find plenty to enjoy on the 4th, or before or after. You don’t have to look any further than Jersey Family Fun’s event calendar! As always, we have all the information you need to know, the who, what where and how much so you can spend more time having FUN!

We find our listings by scouring the internet, keeping our eyes open, and listening as friends talk about their plans – and we bring it all to you in our easy to use events calendar. Below you can find easy links to each of the 21 New Jersey counties and all their 4th of July events. Whether you stay close to home or take a day trip we have you covered!

Some events may require a fee or advanced registration, some have rain dates, and some are for residents only. We provide as much information as we are able to gather, but we recommend following the links or making a phone call for the most up-to-date information. If you have an event that should be listed please use the POST YOUR EVENT button on our New Jersey Calendar of Events. There is no charge to list events that are $5 or less per person to attend.
