🏞️ Freedom Park Info

• 🚫 Park closed all day July 2nd for setup (no early birds!)
• 🕔 Gates open at 5:00 PM
• 🚧 Union Street detours will be in effect — follow police direction
• 🅿️ Handicapped parking available at Freedom Park & the Police Admin Building

Bring chairs, blankets, and your American spirit — but leave the coolers, alcohol, and tents at home (they’re not allowed). And yes, dogs are welcome, as long as they’re on a leash and you clean up after them. But let's be real, ok? Leave your pup safe at home & inside. More dogs go missing during fireworks than any other day of the year! They are not typically a fan of the boom-booms so leave those furbabies home where they can hide under your bed in peace!

Let’s all be good neighbors — keep views clear, be kind to each other, and help keep our park clean!

🎇 This is one of Medford’s favorite nights of the year — the perfect way to celebrate community, summer, and the spirit of Independence Day. Follow @MedfordCelebrates for real-time updates, maps, and last-minute details.

On a night full of color & joy, we remember that freedom isn't guaranteed - it's protected by people who choose truth, kindness & courage in the face of division.

Can’t wait to see the sky light up with all of you. Happy almost 4th, Medford! 🇺🇸✨
