Bedford 4thFest Picnic


Old Bedford School

 

Celebrate Independence Day with the City of Bedford on Monday, July 4 from 5 to 9:30 p.m. at Old Bedford School, 2400 School Lane.

The Bedford 4th Picnic will feature free live music by The Inspiration Band, lawn games, food trucks, and a spectacular fireworks show when the sun goes down. Admission to the picnic is FREE. Bring your lawn chairs, blankets, coolers, and non-alcoholic beverages (no glass containers are permitted).

Fireworks 
The fireworks show will begin around 9:30 p.m. The fireworks will be shot off from Generations Park at Boys Ranch. However, there will not be any designated place to view them, since the park is still under construction and not open to pedestrian or vehicular traffic. Instead, crews will be shooting the fireworks 200-feet higher (similar to the 2021 show), so residents can view them from further away. Residents are encouraged to find safe, alternate locations to view the fireworks and refrain from coming to the park. All traffic laws will be strictly enforced. Patrons are also asked to be respectful to the neighborhoods adjacent to the park when finding parking locations to view the fireworks. Please remember, private fireworks are prohibited in the City of Bedford.
