Happy Independence Day, Sonoma!

The Sonoma Volunteer Firefighter Association continues Sonoma’s 4th of July Celebration tradition with a grand fireworks show. (Note there will be no Plaza party or parade this year.)

The pomp begins with a car cruise through the Sonoma Valley organized by the Devils Darling’s starting at 9:00 am.

Patriotic Car Cruise

The cruise will start at 9:00 am from the parking lot of the Sonoma Veteran’s Hall, go through the plaza, up Highway 12 to Glen Ellen, and back down Arnold Dr to Verano Ave.

Anyone with a classic car or truck is encouraged to show up at 8:30 am and join the cruise. Residents are invited to watch the cruise anywhere along the route.

Fireworks Show

SVFA is excited for the return of their annual fireworks presentation after canceling the 2020 show due to Covid-19.  The spectacular fireworks show begins at dusk and lasts approximately 45 minutes.

This year, SVFA asks spectators to avoid gathering and viewing the fireworks show from the fields surrounding the launch area near Vallejo’s home (at West Spain and Third Street). Instead, viewers are encouraged to watch the show from home or from a distance.
