Hello, Modesto! It’s my favorite month of the summer, July! It’s time to embark on new adventures and make the most of what our vibrant city has to offer. Whether you’re a longtime resident or a visitor, there are plenty of exciting activities awaiting you in Modesto this July. From cultural events to outdoor fun, here’s a curated selection of things to do that will keep you entertained all month long.
The 4th of July is upon us, and what better way to celebrate than a parade? Since 1874, Modesto has celebrated the 4th with a parade downtown! Celebrate Independence Day with a bang at Modesto’s annual July 4th Parade and Fireworks display. The parade will begin at 9:30. Join the festive parade filled with colorful floats, marching bands, and community groups. Don’t forget to buy some fireworks as well to watch the night sky light up! Please don’t do illegal fireworks, keep it safe and sane.
One of my favorite summer memories in Modesto is heading to the Modesto nuts games. Take yourself out to the ballgame and cheer on the Modesto Nuts, our local Minor League Baseball team. Grab a hot dog, root for the home team, and experience the thrill of a live baseball game at John Thurman Field. It’s a fantastic way to spend a summer evening with family and friends. These are just a few highlights of the exciting events and activities taking place in Modesto this July.
Be sure to check local listings and community calendars for more information on other happenings throughout the month.
