Crested Butte’s 4th of July Parade is the Biggest Small Town Celebration Around! Visitors come from around the world to experience the 4th in Crested Butte. Every year around 40 floats come together to form the biggest small town parade in the States. From businesses, to families, to classic cars, our parade has it all. Three different ice cream vendors, a giant hamster wheel slushy machine, cotton candy, beer, food trucks and maybe the bouncy house! Always bringing up the rear is the Crested Butte Fire Protection District with their ambulances and fire trucks, lights a blaze. Get Paid to Help With the Celebrations
For evening activities, either head back up to Mt Crested Butte for a concert at the Red Lady Stage or to Gunnison for fireworks and festivities in Jorgenson Park at 9:30pm. Â
