NOBLESVILLE, IN (May 20, 2025) – The 2025 Noblesville Fireworks Festival has announced details for the free events on Friday, July 4, 2025, beginning at 4 p.m. with the Stars & Stripes Forever Parade through Downtown Noblesville. The Noblesville Fourth of July parade, festival, and fireworks display is the longest continuously running celebration in Central Indiana and an annual tradition in Noblesville since 1997.
“The Fourth of July is always a special day for my family, and so many families throughout Noblesville and the city’s festivities have become a summer tradition that brings our community together,” said Noblesville Mayor Chris Jensen. “Independence Day is a powerful reminder of the courage, sacrifice, and vision that built our nation. It’s a time to reflect on the freedoms we cherish, the responsibilities they carry, and to honor those who gave the ultimate sacrifice to protect them.”
The day starts at 4 p.m. with the annual Fourth of July Parade through downtown Noblesville, presented by Gaylor Electric. Registration to participate in the parade is $25 (nonprofits are not charged), and entries must be submitted by June 27. Forms are available at www.NoblesvilleFireworksFestival.com. The city will announce the parade Grand Marshal at a later date.
The Fireworks Festival, presented by IDI Composites International, will occur at Forest Park from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. The event will include traditional park amenities such as trails, shelters, shade, playgrounds, and festival attractions like inflatables, balloon twisters, and face painters in the Kids Zone. The Teen Zone will also have age-appropriate inflatables like the Spyder bungee jump and a rock wall. Hairbangers Ball will headline the main stage from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. The festivities will culminate with the annual fireworks show, beginning at 10 p.m.
In addition to Gaylor Electric and IDI Composites International, additional sponsors include: Noblesville Boom, Republic Services, East Bank Apartments, Visit Hamilton County, American Structurepoint, CHA Consulting, EXOS, Context Design, and Meijer.
Forest Park also features a limited VIP section where families and friends can purchase tables for the evening. These tables offer up-close seating to the live music performance, an exceptional view of the fireworks, separate bathrooms, and a great meeting place to gather and eat in between activities safely. VIP table groups may bring in their own food and drink, participate in a table-decorating contest, and get access to separate VIP restroom options. Tables seat eight people and cost $160. Funds received for VIP section accommodations help with the costs of hosting the community event.
Public parking will not be available at the park. Parking permits for the Noblesville Aquatic Center are available for $25 before July 4. Proper tags must be displayed to enter the north entrance from State Road 19 during the festival. The July 4 Planning Committee has improved traffic flow to manage better end-of-event travel from Forest Park for motorists, pedestrians, and trolley riders. The Noblesville Fireworks Festival offers free shuttle routes throughout and after the event to assist guests in getting to Forest Park from designated off-site parking lots.
VIP Tables and parking passes may be purchased online at www.NoblesvilleParks.org or by calling the Noblesville Parks Department at 317-776-6350.
