Join an unforgettable celebration of community spirit and gratitude in the heart of North Lake Tahoe this 4th of July! Incline Village’s 4th of July Celebration honors the local heroes who make our lives safer and brighter every day. 

Experience the excitement of the Local Heroes Parade, featuring dazzling floats, an epic kid’s bike parade, classic cars, adorable Tahoe dogs, and an impressive array of fire and rescue vehicles. Our Local Heroes theme pays tribute to the dedicated individuals who serve in various capacities, from veterans and firefighters to healthcare workers, educators, service workers, parents, and everyone else that helps make us a community. 

But the celebration doesn’t stop there! The multi-day Local Heroes Celebration offers something for everyone in the community. Indulge in the beloved annual pancake breakfasts hosted by the North Lake Tahoe Fire Protection District and the IVCB Veterans Club, join the fun at the Kids’ Bike Parade and Community Fair, meet the heroes of the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office at their Meet & Greet, and savor delicious barbecue delights at The Backyard BBQ on the Village Green. We’ll also celebrate our local veterans at a recognition luncheon and honor our US Flag with a formal retirement ceremony.

Plus, get active with two exciting new events hosted by Highlander Pride: the thrilling 3v3 Basketball Tournament and the invigorating Firecracker 5K and Fun Run. And of course, don’t forget the annual enchanting TOCCATA concert! Close out the Local Heroes Celebration with the return of a spectacular fireworks display over Lake Tahoe, presented by Red, White & Tahoe Blue II.

Come together with friends, family, and neighbors to honor our local heroes and make lasting memories this 4th of July in North Lake Tahoe!
