4th of July Celebration
Hosted by American Legion Post 597 & Historic Downtown Carrollton Association
Join American Legion Post 597 and the HDCA for a meaningful and festive Independence Day celebration on Saturday, July 4, 2026, beginning at 12:00 PM.
This community event is an opportunity to come together in the spirit of patriotism, honoring our nation’s history and the values of freedom, unity, and service. Guests will enjoy classic American fare including hamburgers and hot dogs, along with music and fellowship in a welcoming, family-friendly environment.
Independence Day celebrations traditionally bring people together to reflect on shared values while strengthening community connections and national pride. In that spirit, this gathering is designed to foster camaraderie, celebrate our heritage, and provide a place for neighbors to connect.
We invite all members of the community to attend, enjoy great food, and experience an afternoon of patriotic celebration.
Celebrate. Connect. Honor.
