Fourth of July

Mira Mesa 4^th of July Parade and Family Fun Day in the Park 2017

The Mira Mesa Town Council is honored to once again present the annual Mira Mesa 4^th of July Parade and Family Fun Day in the Park. This 43 year tradition allows Mira Mesa to come together in celebration of Independence Day and our rich and diverse community.

The day begins with a Pancake Breakfast at the Mira Mesa Senior Center from 7 AM to 11 AM, hosted by the Black Mountain Masonic Lodge. Family Fun Day in the Park opens at 11 am with food vendors and entertainment. The annual 4^th of July Parade steps off at 11:30 am from the corner of Mira Mesa Blvd and Greenford Drive, traveling down Mira Mesa Blvd and turning north on Camino Ruiz to end at New Salem. Family Fun Day continues until 9 pm, and the Park provides a front row seat for the Fireworks Extravaganza. The annual fireworks are produced by Scripps Mesa Fireworks.
