The theme of the 2025 Park Cities Fourth of July Parade is ‘America the Beautiful,’ and spectators can expect plenty of red, white, and blue-hued patriotism and pride from this year’s floats.
The parade will start rolling at 9 a.m. on July 4 at Highland Park Town Hall, and will follow its usual route to Centennial Park, where the morning’s festivities will wrap up with a celebration for the entire family.
For the first time this year, Trek Bicycle Dallas Park Cities will team up with YMCA staff and the Rotary Club of Park Cities to make the bike decorating contest even better for patriotic pedalers. Trek will offer free safety checks for participating bicyclists, who should plan on arriving at the Moody Family YMCA at about 8:30 a.m.
Donations to the Park Cities Fourth of July Parade benefit the North Texas Food Bank. Since 2016, the parade has raised sufficient funds to provide 2.1 million meals for needy North Texans.
This year, the demand for food assistance has increased, but the North Texas Food Bank is in jeopardy of being able to meet the needs of the 12 counties it serves because of funding cuts, the nonprofit’s president and CEO Trisha Cunningham told the Rotary Club at a June 6 meeting.
Every $1 donation to the North Texas Food Bank provides at least three nourishing meals. Visit parkcitiesrotary.org to learn more about the parade or support the North Texas Food Bank.
