Winslow Way, Madison Ave, Bjune Dr, and Brien Dr will close to the general public at 9AM.
Madison and Winslow will reopen at the end of the parade at 3PM.
Erickson Ave and all side roads connecting to Madison Ave will be closed to through traffic. Erickson will be used for parade staging until 3PM.
Plan to park outside of the Winslow retail core. FREE shuttle service will be available from the Ace Hardware parking lot compliments of our friends at Fieldstone Rolling Bay and Bainbridge Senior Living. Overflow parking is available across the street at Kitsap Bank.
Parking at the High School complex and Ferry Terminal are always good ideas.
You can never go wrong with biking or walking to the festival.

The Downtown Association puts on the July 3rd Street Dance. Read all about it!

The Grand Old Fourth Car Show is in the parking lots along Bjune Drive behind Umpqua and Chase banks.
While there are plenty of overlapping characters and vehicles, this event is not to be confused with the monthly Classic Car Cruise In at the First Baptist Church up Madison.

There is no official fireworks display on Bainbridge Island, but thanks to enthusiasts across Kitsap County, fireworks can be seen and heard at all hours of the day and night all summer long.
Love Kitsap has the full list of July 4th celebrations across Kitsap County.
