For a few hours every July 4th, Franklin slows down.
Kids ride decorated bikes down Main Street. Flags wave from wagons and strollers. Friends run into friends. Families find their favorite place on the Square or spread out blankets at the Park at Harlinsdale Farm.
It's a day filled with simple moments that become lasting memories.
From the morning and afternoon festivities downtown to the live music and fireworks that close out the night, we invite you to celebrate America's 250 years of independence with your community.
We'll save you a spot on the lawn.
