Palisades 4th
Dear Community,
Like you, we have been devastated by the Palisades wildfire that, with little warning, mercilessly took from us our homes, schools, places of worship, businesses and our entire town.
What the fire could not take from us are our memories and our perseverance to carry on. One of those important community underpinnings is a day that many of us believe to be the best day in the Palisades, July 4th.
For 77 years the July 4th Parade, with the later addition of the Palisades Will Rogers 5 & 10K Race in the morning and music and fireworks in the evening, has been a long-standing and loved tradition in our community.
It’s with incredible pride that Palisades 4th is pleased to announce our intention to have a celebration for our community this July 4th, 2025.
While there are many more details to come in the months ahead, rest assured that we will do our part to stand with our neighbors, partners and friends to bring back our community.
The Pacific Palisades has been an incredibly special place for all of us to raise families and live our lives, and we know that it will be again. We have the support of our elected and appointed officials and know that they will do everything they can to support our celebration.
In time, we will call upon our past volunteers and ask for new ones to help on July 4th and will endeavor to provide a day for Palisadians to gather, greet, reminisce and celebrate the independence of our nation, and the strength of our community.
