JULY 4 ACTIVITIES IN BEL AIR, MARYLAND
Welcome to Bel Air's July 4th Celebration!
There's nothing like spending the day in Bel Air, Maryland, on Independence Day! From dawn to dark, we promise you will experience a clean, lively community and a progressive spirit. Professional and service organizations, churches, museums, historic landmarks and schools are concentrated in our town, which is also the county seat of Harford County.
We offer fun, family-friendly events all day!
Daytime events include Horse-shoe Pitching, Watermelon Eating, and Uncle Sam Says, and it all begins with a patriotic FLAG-RAISING CEREMONY, complete with "Call to the Colors," and the Star-Spangled Banner (our National Anthem).
Evening events include our fabulous PARADE, one of the largest in the region, followed by a spectacular fireworks display!
