It's summertime in Frisco, which means it's time to float the Lazy River at a RoughRiders baseball game, cheer on FC Dallas at a soccer match, explore Limestone Quarry park, and of course, celebrate America's birthday at Frisco Freedom Fest!

 

Frisco Freedom Fest presented by CoServ will take place on Monday, July 4. Don't miss your once-in-a-year chance to celebrate our nation's birthday with yummy food, great music, and aaahhh-worthy fireworks! Planning to be there? Here's what you need to know:

About the Celebration

Taste of Frisco starts at 3 p.m. Concessionaires and eateries are serving a wide array of delicious fare. There's something to please every palate, including Pizzeria Testa, Tender Smokehouse, Best Thai, Fletcher's Original Corny Dogs, and Frios Gourmet Pops. 

Party in the Plaza begins at 4 p.m. and features fun activities for the entire family including live music on stage, Children's Expo, and a Classic Car & Motorcycle Show. 

Fireworks begin approximately at 10:15 p.m. following the conclusion of the FC Dallas match. The 20-minute show is one of the largest in North Texas. Fireworks are visible from the area around Purefoy Municipal Center and Toyota Stadium. Find information on shuttles, parking, and road closures on the Frisco Freedom Fest website. 

As a warm up to the Independence Day festivities, Frisco also hosts several events on July 3 including a Cornhole Tournament, Dachshund Dash, Yankee Doodle Poodle Parade (new this year), and the Hotter 'n Firecrackers 5K Glow Run. Learn more here.
