One of the Bay area's most beloved patriotic traditions is back, and this year, it's got a brand new home. The Greater Brandon 4th of July Parade is moving to the Hillsborough County Fairgrounds in Dover at 215 Sydney Washer Road, and we think it's going to be the best one yet. After the parade, stick around for a full afternoon festival with family-friendly games and entertainment, animals, an old-fashioned chili cook-off, and more! Free to attend, free parking, and a whole lot of community pride.
