Support Monterey’s family-oriented Independence Day celebration and preserve the Fourth of July community tradition.

If you enjoy the festivities, do your part by contributing funds and/or time to support the parade, lawn party, cleanup and fundraising efforts.

More than 75,000 people from throughout the area come to this community event. Although the City hopes to continue this community celebration, it does cost approximately $350,000 to make it possible.

The City has organized a Fourth of July fundraising committee to help support this event. We are asking the community to financially support the event. Contributions from individuals and businesses are tax deductible.

To support the Fourth of July event campaign, make your checks payable to the City of Monterey – Fourth of July Celebration or make a donation via credit card. Mail contributions to: Director Kay Russo, Recreation and Community Services Department, City Hall, Monterey, CA 93940.
