Fireworks In Claremont & La Verne July 4th 2020 Canceled: Events

Fourth of July fireworks & parades are canceled, but cities are getting creative with live & virtual ways to celebrate in San Gabriel Valley

CLAREMONT-LA VERNE, CA — Independence Day across Los Angeles County, will not look the same this year, thanks to the coronavirus.

Due to regional health orders and an L.A. County ban on organized fireworks, cities and organizations canceled their traditional Fourth of July extravaganzas, which included annual events in Claremont and La Verne.

The closest hold-out, Rancho Cucamonga, announced late this week that the city also was scrapping its fireworks plans.

Fireworks displays are set in Riverside, Orange and San Diego counties — but those are only a handful and come with viewing restrictions. Cancellations also were announced this week in Big Bear and Lake Arrowhead, although Lake Arrowhead plans to proceed with a flyover.

But the patriotic spirit persists, nonetheless, throughout the area and Greater L.A., as several communities are hosting live aerial flyovers, virtual fireworks and parades, decorating contests and fun, Independence Day activities to do from home. For one, Grand Park + Music Center has a virtual block party in the works.
