There are some fun ways to spend the 4th Of July across the Northland, but if you feel it just isn't the same without a parade, then you should spend time in Superior, Cloquet or Tower.
Duluth's annual Fourth Fest will once again be held in Bayfront Festival Park, with national recording artist Savannah Conley headlining the free event.
Duluth and Superior have great fireworks displays, but there are plenty of celebrations around the area that are just a short jaunt away. Here are some I have put together.
Duluth's Fourth Fest is tomorrow in Bayfront Festival Park, with gates opening at 4:00 p.m. and music at 4:30 p.m. If being on Lake Superior is in your plans, then you should be aware of special operating hours for both the Ariel Lift Bridge and the Minnesota Slip Bridge (the blue bridge by the DECC).
The Fourth Of July is always a great time of the year, even when it falls on a Tuesday. With the upcoming holiday, the City Of Superior has announced changes in their trash and recycling pick up schedule.
Our next crafting project was chosen because of the upcoming Independence Day holiday. Technically, it's DIY Lanterns and we are using solar powered tops, but you can also put a battery operated tealight in it or if you don't put the top on you could use a candle. If you use red, white and blue glitter like we did, it's perfect for the upcoming 4th of July holiday. Make it a family crafting pro
The Mighty Thomas Carnival has been coming to the DECC parking lot for as long as I can remember.
