The Town of Fountain Hills is seeking food vendors for this year’s “Fourth at the Fountain,” a 4th of July celebration, to be held on Monday, July 4.

Town staff organizers are looking first to community members to be vendors at this year’s program. The event hours will be from 6-10 p.m.

The structure of the event has changed from years past as the event will be open to the public free of charge. “Fourth at the Fountain” will follow a no-competition structure, ensuring that no other vendor will be serving identical menus. Anyone considering being a “Fourth at the Fountain” vendor is encouraged to stop by Town Hall to pick up the vendor application.

Applications and vendor fees are due by the end of business Wednesday, June 15.

Put on your red, white and blue and join friends and neighbors at Fountain Park on Monday, July 4 to celebrate Independence Day. The celebration will kick off at 6 p.m. with music, games, and prizes. DJ Steve Grosse will keep the whole family moving and grooving with great tunes throughout the night.

What July 4th event would be complete without some pyrotechnics? The 4th at the Fountain program will conclude with a majestic fireworks display at 9 p.m. over the park’s picturesque lake.

This year, a new event format will be introduced as the entertainment area will be free and open to all event guests. The Fourth at the Fountain program has been designed to be a community-wide event open to all.

Attendees are encouraged to bring chairs, blankets, and picnic baskets to relax and enjoy an evening full of fun throughout the park. Food vendors will also be on hand with Italian ice, frozen lemonade, and other goodies to help you beat the heat.

Public parking throughout downtown Fountain Hills will be available. Please note temporary road closures will be in effect at the end of the program to help allow pedestrians to exit the park. Event guests are welcome to bring Frisbees, balls, and other games but to please observe the following:

• No Glass

• No alcohol

• No personal fireworks, sparklers or other open flames.

• Due to the fireworks, organizers suggest all pets be kept home for their safety.
