Every Independence Day, Breckenridge comes alive with patriotism, parties and the annual Main Street Parade. It’s a day of celebration that includes athletic competitions, live music, art festivals, family activities and a few of our favorite small-town traditions.
Firework-Free 4th of July
The town of Breckenridge will not offer a firework display as part of its Independence Day Celebration. Colorado’s low humidity has its perks, but can also can create dry conditions. Our community places a high value on wildfire prevention, and we thank guests in advance for not using fireworks in Breckenridge this Fourth of July. Learn more about preventing wildfires.
FURRY FRIENDS
Town officials strongly recommend leaving furry friends at home for their own safety and comfort as downtown is expected to be busy on July 4th.
