This is a wonderful hometown parade filled with floats, bands, and cool vehicles.  We have been the last few years and loved it.  If you are thinking of heading down, you should!  It’s a wonderful, patriotic way to celebrate Independence Day.

5 Tips for the Round Rock 4th of July Parade:

1. Know the parade route: Take a look at the map of the parade route. Pick a place to park and sit beforehand.

2. Come early to get a seat: Make sure you arrive EARLY if you want a good seat. And bring your own chairs to sit in.

3. Be respectful of neighbor’s & businesses’ lawns: Please be considerate of those who own homes and businesses along the route. Don’t leave trash behind.

4. **CANCELLED FOR 2021** Bring a bag for goodies: Many floats and groups pass out candy & goodies to the crowd.  Make sure to bring a bag to collect those items in.

5. Stand often, wave a lot, and have a good time: Stand for the nation’s flag, military groups and the national anthem. Wave at all the kids in the parade, and enjoy yourself, no matter what the heat or crowds look like.

Bonus Tip:  Bring LOTS of water. Even in the shade, it can be hot.
