An Evening at Orchards Park - 4th of July Fireworks Celebration
Bentonville, AR……. Bentonville Parks & Recreation is pleased to host a 2025 Independence Day Celebration - An Evening at Orchards Park, on Friday, July 4. The annual Fourth of July event will include all the sights and sounds of a traditional, patriotic celebration. It follows a fun-filled First Friday on the Bentonville Square – Land of the Free – hosted by Downtown Bentonville Incorporated as part of their ongoing “Passport to Adventure” journey.
Featuring a full playlist of classic hits and holiday favorites, Red Ambition and Arkansas Winds will kick off the park festivities with live music at 7:00 pm. The evening concludes with a fabulous fireworks show at approximately 9:30 pm. To ensure prime viewing, the designated shoot site for this year’s fireworks display is Memorial Park Soccer Field #9. Please be respectful of signage and barricades surrounding the drop zone perimeter, as safety remains a top priority.
The event is free to the public. There will be food trucks and concessions on site, selling summertime favorites like cotton candy, kettle corn, and snow cones. Guests are welcome to bring personal coolers; however, alcoholic beverages are strictly prohibited. For anyone needing extra assistance or special parking accommodation, we have a dedicated parking lot and shuttle service available to the main staging area. It is recommended that eventgoers arrive early as some surrounding streets will be temporarily closed for the celebration. Orchards Park, a spacious public park accessible and inclusive in design for all residents and visitors, is located at 1100 NE John DeShields Boulevard on the corner of J Street, across from the entrance to the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art.
Please note: No personal fireworks allowed. In the event of inclement weather, the fireworks show will be postponed until Saturday, July 5th.
