Volunteers are needed for the 4th of July Parade! There are opportunities throughout the day. Please click here to sign up!

Bigfork knows how to throw a party. And when it is our country’s birthday, Bigfork really knows how to celebrate. Centerpiece of the celebration is the annual parade through Bigfork which begins at noon. Bring your whole family to view our great parade to celebrate the birth of our country. The 4^th of July Parade in Bigfork is a Flathead Valley favorite.

This year’s 4^th of July Parade theme is celebrating Essential Workers – the Heart of Bigfork! From grocery store clerks and retail cashiers to servers and bartenders, teachers, and nurses – we could not have survived the last year without them! To celebrate them, we are inviting the public to nominate the front-line workers they could not have lived without to be the grand marshals of the parade. Click here to nominate someone! Nominations are needed by July 20^th.

Parking for the parade will be in the field at the intersection of Highway 35 and 82. From this parking area only, free shuttle service is available to downtown from 8am-5pm. For everyone to have a clear view of the parade, there will be no cars allowed in downtown Bigfork after 8 am on the 4^th.

Floats must per-register. Click Here to Register a Float. The Bigfork Area Chamber of Commerce will be charging a fee to help cover the costs associated with the parade. Floats will be judged on Entertainment Value, Originality, Craftsmanship, and Interpretation of the Theme, along with a classic car category.
