Don’t miss this year’s “Celebration of Freedom” as the City of Pearland celebrates the 4th in patriotic style.  The event is scheduled for Monday, July 4 from 6 to 10 p.m. at Pearland High School Football Stadium located at 3775 S. Main Street.

The Independence Day activities and entertainment begin at 6 p.m. Following the opening of the event, “The Slags” will perform on to the H-E-B Entertainment Stage playing everything from today’s hits to classics of the past. Relax and sing along to live music while enjoying strolling entertainment, craft and novelty booths, “Backyard Bash” Yard Games and keep the young ones busy with our “Hoola Hoop-la” Children’s Area. The event will also feature a VFW military salute followed by a performance of the National Anthem. The exciting fireworks finale, “unleashed” by Westside Veterinary Hospital will ignite the Pearland sky at 9 p.m.

“July 4th is a time for family and friends to come together in celebration of the freedoms that we enjoy everyday. It is wonderful to be able to provide Pearland residents with an opportunity to celebrate in the community,” said Chris Orlea, Director of Parks & Recreation.
