The seaside town of Blaine’s 4th of July Celebration, where thousands come to experience everything red, white and blue. Come early to find a great spot to enjoy the parade, stay late to experience the fireworks. Located “Where America Begins,” nestled on Drayton Harbor and the US/Canada border just off I-5, Blaine will be kicking off its 17th annual celebration on Wednesday, July 4th with day-long festivities including:

  • A hearty pancake breakfast starting at 8 am;
  • An old-fashioned 4th of July parade at noon;
  • A spectacular show & shine car show of over 200 classic vehicles;
  • A festive street fair with a full line-up of live music and outdoor beer garden;
  • A dazzling fireworks display at dusk over the bay.
There is also plenty of time to join in the parade! Parade staging is on a first come, first served basis on the 4th beginning as early as 9:00 am. Parade judging is at 11 am. If you are feeling spontaneous, there is no need to pre-register to participate, however it is recommended to fill out the parade registration form ahead of time and bring to the parade line up.  Most entries are free, there is a fee of $25 for political entries and a $10 entry fee for businesses which are not members of the Blaine Community Chamber.

        We acknowledge that Whatcom County is located on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. They cared for the lands that included what we’d call the Puget Sound region, Vancouver Island and British Columbia since time immemorial. This gives us the great obligation and opportunity to learn how to care for our surrounding areas and all the natural and human resources we require to live. We express our deepest respect and gratitude for our indigenous neighbors, the Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribe, for their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
