All City community centers, recreation facilities, and Evanston Public Library locations will be closed on Sunday, July 4 and Monday, July 5. The Levy Senior Center, Gibbs-Morrison Cultural Center and Chandler-Newberger Center will also be closed on Saturday, July 3.

Parking meters/pay boxes and downtown parking garages will be free on July 4. In addition, other restricted areas with signs that prohibit parking except on holidays will be honored. Regular parking enforcement will be in place on Monday, July 5; however, street cleaning operations will not occur.

Virtual Independence Day Celebration
Due to the amount of pre-planning needed and the prior uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, the Evanston Fourth of July Association voted in March to replaced its traditional 4th of July activities with an alternative virtual celebration. View a complete listing of Independence Day festivities.
