Everyday seems patriotic when your town has a name like Liberty. Looking for somewhere to celebrate the nation’s birthday this July 4th weekend? Check out the Independence Day festivities going on in the state’s most patriotic towns (determined by name only, of course).

Liberty
Located in southeastern Indiana’s Union County, Liberty is home to Whitewater Memorial State Park and Brookville Lake. Whitewater Memorial is hosting a long list of 4th of July activities including live music and crafts. Because there are no fireworks allowed on at the state park — it’s an Indiana Department of Natural Resources property — fireworks shows can be found in nearby Brookville and College Corner. For more information about the weekend events and details on fireworks, visit in.gov/dnr.
Just because they don’t have patriotic names, doesn’t mean there aren’t great Independence Day events happening in other areas of Indiana. Here are a few more:

Hi Lisa,
I’m not sure if they do fireworks or not. I’d recommend contacting the folks at http://www.amishcountry.org about this query. Hope that helps!

Patriot Indiana has a long running Fourth of July celebration and parade. It’s had to reinvent itself the last 2 years with Covid, but still going strong in the little Ohio River town between Cincinnati and Louisville. The changing of the flags at Memorial Park, the parade, food truck vendors, inflatable slides at the park for the kids and fireworks on the river at dark. Big celebration for a population of approximately 200, but people come from over the Tri-state area to enjoy.
