Fourth of July Parade

Mayor John Irrgang, in collaboration with Hillcrest Golf and Country Club, is excited to announce the return of the Independence Day Parade as well as the Hillcrest Fireworks Show.

The celebration will begin on July 4, 2024 at 11am with a Fourth of July parade. Floats are welcome, but we are excited to roll out a format that makes it easy for anyone to participate. This includes: tractors, golf carts, bicycles, big wheels, wagons, tricycles, strollers, clubs/groups, walkers, or sports teams. No pre-registration is required. The parade lineup will start at 10am on Mulberry Street by the Batesville Memorial Pool and will end at Liberty Park.

The parade route will be as follows:

Line up on Mulberry Street (by Batesville Memorial Pool)
Proceed south on Mulberry
Turn left on West Pearl

Be sure to wear your most festive and patriotic red, white, and blue!
