Fourth of July

July 4, 2026- 11:30am - 4:00ish

Our biggest event of the year kicks off at noon with the National Anthem and a festive neighborhood parade. From there, the fun continues with classic field games like the egg toss, potato sack races, water balloon toss, and three-legged race—fun for all ages! Many families set up pop-up tents along the park’s perimeter to have a home base for the day. It looks a lot like a huge tailgate, complete with camp chairs, coolers, etc. Come early to get set up!

🎉Feeling hungry? Grab a bite from the food truck or bring your own picnic. The food truck for 2026 is Carolina Smoke and opens at 12:30pm. Dessert will be available to purchase as a fundraiser for our Monarchs swim team.

🎉Games will start around 12:30pm with the youngest kids! From there, we move on up through the ages and end with all age events. Games usually end around 3:30 but there is no set schedule.

🎉The pool will be closed during the games but typically opens in the late afternoon from 4:00 PM- 8:00 PM.

🎉 Please remember, fireworks are not permitted in the City of Kirkland, and there are no evening facilities.

🎉 This event is for residents and their limited guests only.

🎉 Want to help? We need MANY volunteers to pull this off. Check out our SignUp Genius to see how you can help. Volunteering is a great way to meet new neighbors!
