Things to do on Cape Cod this Fourth of July
If you're spending the Fourth of July on Cape Cod this year, read on for our guide to the perfect way to spend the holiday.
1. Watch a patriotic parade.
The perfect way to start Independence Day on Cape Cod is at one of the many Fourth of July parades taking place. From Barnstable to Hyannis to Wellfleet to Provincetown, no matter where you are on Cape Cod there is a parade nearby. Our favorite of course is the Chatham Parade, one of the oldest in the country! Cape Cod Beach Chair has taken part in this longtime tradition many years and even won the most patriotic award a few times.
2. Spend the day at the beach.
A stay on the Cape is not complete without a beach day spent at some of the most gorgeous beaches in the world. Soak in the sun on pristine sandy beaches. Complete your perfect beach day with premium wooden beach chairs from Cape Cod Beach Chair, a unique and customizable souvenir if you are visiting the Cape for the 4th. If you can't bring them home with you, don't worry - we ship!
3. Catch a baseball game.
For a taste of classic Americana, head to a Cape Cod Baseball League Game. The Cape League is where the best college baseball players from across the country spend their summers, so the competition is fierce and the games are always exciting. Admission is free, so bring the whole family and enjoy the game at one of the many fields located across the Cape.
4. Enjoy a fireworks show.
No 4th of July is complete without catching a firework show, and there is no shortage of fireworks in the skies over Cape Cod on the night of the 4th. Provincetown Harbor and Falmouth Heights Beach are two spots to see a dazzling show on July 4th.
