The celebration of the Fourth of July is a Petoskey tradition that spans many decades. With its cool lake breezes, charming downtown, nearby beaches, and its natural beauty, Petoskey provides the perfect backdrop for a Fourth of July that you’ll never forget. No matter if you’re a local or visiting the area, you’ll bask in the warm community where we’re all friends and neighbors on this special summer holiday.
Enjoy the charm of this classic, small-town parade as it makes its way from the line-up area at Petoskey High School, down Mitchell Street, across on Petoskey Street to Lake Street and then up Lake Street where it ends at the gazebo in Pennsylvania Park. The Grandpa Shorter’s Parade will feature close to 50-units including the NCMC mascot, award-winning Petoskey High School Marching Band and the famous Petoskey Steel Drum Band, as well as many other fun entries. The best parade viewing is on Mitchell Street and Lake Street Downtown Petoskey. The parade starts at 6pm!
The Petoskey fireworks begin at dusk, approximately 10:20 PM. This year, the Petoskey fireworks are presented by Birchwood Construction, Celebrating 50 years of building excellence The Fireworks Show is Petoskey’s grand celebration that will conclude with a spectacular fireworks display along the shores of Little Traverse Bay. The best viewing area is in Petoskey’s Bayfront Park.
