The State College 4th of July parade is a cornerstone of the Central PA 4th Fest, a vibrant and patriotic spectacle that brings the community together in a display of American pride. Winding through the heart of downtown State College, typically along College Avenue, the parade is a celebration of local spirit and national heritage. Spectators line the sidewalks, eagerly awaiting the procession of floats, marching bands, and community groups.
