July 4th FreedomFest

July 4th FreedomFest is an annual Independence Day celebration at Pleasant Hill Park in Northeast Philadelphia. It is an inclusive, family-friendly festival along the Delaware River. Each year, more than 5,000 attendees enjoy a full day of live music, local performers, arts and culture activities, recreation, food vendors, and community programming in one of the city’s most scenic waterfront spaces. The day concludes with a spectacular fireworks show launched from a barge on the Delaware River, offering a stunning finale to an unforgettable community celebration. Produced by nonprofit One River Alliance in partnership with Philadelphia Parks & Recreation, the Philadelphia Police Department, neighborhood organizations, and local elected officials, FreedomFest has become one of the city’s largest July 4th events and a beloved Northeast Philly tradition.
