Join us at Jellystone Park™ for a weeklong celebration of freedom, fun, and everything red, white, and blue during Patriotic Pic-a-nic Week! It's the ultimate 4th of July bash filled with festive activities and star-spangled adventures for the whole family. Kick things off with our Patriotic Parade, where you can march, wave flags, and show off your best Independence Day spirit alongside Yogi Bear™ and friends. Then, head over to the Stars & Stripes Poolside Picnic Party, where you can cool off with a splash, enjoy delicious cookout treats, and groove to live music that will keep the energy high all afternoon. Get creative at the Red, White & Blue Craft Station, where kids can make patriotic keepsakes, and take on exciting challenges during our All-American Field Day, featuring tug-of-war, relay races, and more. As the sun sets, the celebration reaches its peak with a glowing Bonfire Bash and a dazzling Fireworks Finale to light up the night in honor of America's birthday. Make this 4th of July unforgettable with a week of laughter, games, and patriotic pride at Jellystone Park's Patriotic Pic-a-nic Week!
