The Festival also includes midway games, food, music, the 35th annual car show (on the 4th, 8am-2pm), fireworks (Thurs. & Sat., 10pm), and more.<\/p>\n

Many nearby communities<\/strong> will be celebrating as well, e.g.<\/em>, Milton<\/a> offers a carnival, parade (1pm on the 4th), music, fireworks, and more. The Hoard Historical Museum<\/a> (401 Whitewater Ave, Fort Atkinson<\/a>) will host its 41st annual ice cream social on the 4th from 1-3pm with music and patriotic readings. Events listings are available for Jefferson County<\/a> communities or Walworth County communities<\/a> by selecting a date or date range on their calendars.
