JULY 3RD, LET’S GET THIS PARTY STARTED!
Northside offers up an event as unique as Northside itself: A pre- 4th of July Rock ‘n Roll Carnival! Held the night before the now infamous Northside 4th of July Parade, this one of a kind Cincinnati event will be an experience to be enjoyed by all. Mysterious, strange and bold: Cincinnati’s only Rock ‘N Roll Carnival!
YOU’LL HAVE TO SEE IT TO BELIEVE IT!
Just past the entrance the pavilion at Hoffner Park will be transformed into a festive Beer Garden. Just a step beyond festival goers will emerge into a captivating playground of great Rock ‘N Roll, Fire Breathers, Jugglers, a Burlesque Show and a carnival side show featuring Sword Swallowers and a Bed of Nails! Anticipation will build as a bona fide rock ‘n roll concert unfolds inducing the flow of nightlife activity between Hoffner park and Northside’s dynamic business district.
THE 4TH OF JULY PARADE!
For 30 years+ the Northside 4th of July Parade has been Cincinnati’s most unique & diverse parade. Starts at noon at the corner of Ashtree and Hamilton and travels down into the heart of Northside, ending at the 4th of July Festival at Hoffner Park. Click on the Parade tab for more info.
