4Th Of July Parade
Join us for the 2024 Edina 4th of July Parade on July 4th at 10 am. Edina’s fireworks will be held on July 4th after dusk in Rosland Park.
Our main event is the parade on July 4th at 10 a.m. But the Edina Community Foundation, along with the City of Edina, orchestrates three July events: the parade, the fireworks, and a veterans dinner that celebrates veterans with local ties who participate in our parade each year. A team of community members begins planning the parade in February!
The parade begins at 10 a.m. behind Edina City Hall (4801 W. 50th St.) and travels down 50th Street ending at Halifax.
The hour-long parade features veterans, marching bands, floats, horses, musicians, community groups, politicians, and more.
We recommend spectators arrive early, since an estimated 20,000 people will attend the parade. The parade will also be broadcast on Edina TV (Comcast channels 16 and 813) and made available later for viewing on the City’s website, YouTube channel, and social media.
Are you the fastest man, woman or kid in Edina? Introducing the inaugural Edina Dash to kick off the Edina Parade! This is your chance to sprint down 50th Street in front of 20,000 fans.... all for a great cause. 100% of the proceeds benefit Edina Give & Go and the Edina Community Foundation.
The Edina Dash is a 0.75-mile sprint from the top of the hill at City Hall to Lunds & Byerlys.
The fee is $20 per entry with a maximum of 500 dashers competing for the titles of fastest man, woman & kid in Edina. Prizes will also be awarded for Best Dressed Group/Individual.
The winners will receive custom trophies & "Fastest x in Edina" gear.
The race will be run at approximately 9:30 am before the parade begins. Follow @edinadash on Instagram for details.
