Free Family Event Returns to Barney Schwartz Park Moonshiner Collective to Headline Entertainment
May 19, 2025 (PASO ROBLES, CA) – The City of Paso Robles and Travel Paso are proud to present the annual Fourth of July Celebration at Barney Schwartz Park on Friday, July 4, 2025, from 4 -10 PM. This cherished community tradition is free to attend and features live music by Moonshiner Collective, food trucks, family-friendly activities, free RV parking, and a spectacular fireworks show.
In March, the City and Travel Paso announced a fundraising goal of $60,000 to close the gap on the necessary budget needed to fund the annual celebration. In less than two months, thanks to the incredible support of the community, the fundraising goal has exceeded expectations.
“Local businesses and community partners see the value in this cherished tradition,” said Freda Berman, Public Works Director with the City of Paso Robles. “Our fundraising goal was met in record time, and now we can focus on planning an incredible day to celebrate our nation’s birthday. We hope families will plan now to spend the holiday in Paso Robles.”
Event planning is underway. The core area still needing support is volunteers. Volunteers must be 18 years or older and available for at least a 2-hour shift on July 4 between 10 am – 10 pm. All volunteers will receive a t-shirt, a complimentary meal, and reserved parking. Volunteer assignments will include lake monitor, parking lot attendant, and access control monitor.
"Our contribution provides a foundation, but it's the remarkable collaboration of our local businesses and the team at the City that makes great things happen in our community," said Stacie Jacob, President and CEO of Travel Paso. "We're honored to help create these meaningful moments and look forward to celebrating alongside both neighbors and visitors alike."
