The Parade takes place rain or shine and would only be postponed or cancelled if the weather was determined to be “dangerous.” In this case, an announcement will be posted that morning at www.cityofelgin.org/july4  or on the 4th of July Facebook Event Page.

Shuttle service for parade participants is available in the surface lot at 200 N. Grove Avenue, Elgin, IL 60120 (former Gail Borden Library site) north of the Hemmens.
