Details

Join us for the 2026 4th of July Parade as it winds its way through downtown Bethany Beach. Festivities kick off at noon on Friday, July 3rd.
A parade route map is available on the Town of Bethany Beach website under “Activities,” then “4th of July.” Scroll to the bottom of the page to find the full route.
Thinking of entering a float? Pre-registration will be launching soon, though day-of participants are welcome. This year’s theme, Stars, Stripes, and Shorelines, invites you to showcase Bethany Beach’s past, present, and future with creativity, flair and a nod to your own family traditions.
Bikers and walkers are free to join without registering. Bike decorating kits will be available for pickup on the morning of the parade at the Christian Church Conference Center, just remember to bring your own bag.
Have a marching band interested in participating? Please contact Julie at [email protected].
Float awards will be presented at 7:15 PM at the Bandstand, followed by a performance from The Funsters at 7:30 PM, because no celebration is complete without a proper encore.
