4th of July Spectacular - 2026

Published on June 10, 2026

The 4th of July is right around the corner, and Los Alamos County is gearing up for the event! The 4th of July Spectacular will be held on Saturday, July 4th, at Overlook Park in White Rock, from 4:00pm – 10:00pm.

The day of entertainment begins at 4:00pm with Sysygy, followed by Radio Blast at 5:00pm.

Our headliner, Matchbox Twenty Too– A Matchbox Twenty Tribute band, will take the stage at 7:00pm to bring the house down and get the event attendees dancing and singing to their favorite songs at Overlook Park.

Beginning at 9:00pm, the 4th of July Spectacular will launch an extended drone show provided by Sky Elements, which will conclude the event at 9:30pm. There will not be a fireworks display this year due to the Stage 2 Fire Restrictions.

The Los Alamos County Recreation Division is still looking for vendors of all varieties. Food vendors will be placed within the gravel parking area, parallel to the Dara Jones Soccer Field, and must provide their own power. Other vendors may be placed on the Dara Jones Soccer Field to have visibility and interaction with attendees. Vendors who have tents must be weighted down and not staked.
