Happy 250th Anniversary, America! Church on the Ridge is excited to announce the return of Red, White & Boom, the Snoqualmie Valley’s largest professional Fourth of July fireworks celebration, taking place on the scenic 33-acre grounds of Snoqualmie Community Park.
Celebrating its 10th anniversary, this family-friendly community event will feature a spectacular 20-minute professional fireworks display, along with inflatables, live music, more than 22 food trucks, local vendors, field games, sidewalk chalk, coloring stations, bubbles, balloon artists, face painting, photo booths, and much more.
This year’s celebration is made possible through the generous support of community sponsors and donors, including Safeway, the 2026 Title Sponsor. Complete event details, FAQs, and a full list of sponsors and partners can be found at Red, White & Boom WA
About Church on the Ridge & Red, White & Boom
Founded in 2004, Church on the Ridge has served the Snoqualmie Valley for more than two decades through Sunday gatherings for all ages, weekday preschool programs, before- and after-school care, sports leagues, classes, Bible studies, and seasonal community events including Breakaway VBS and Happiest Halloween.
Church on the Ridge launched the first Red, White & Boom celebration in 2016, drawing approximately 3,500 attendees. Since then, the event has grown significantly, with crowds expected to exceed 8,000 attendees in 2026 across the upper and lower soccer fields of Snoqualmie Community Park and the YMCA parking lot.
Red, White & Boom is free to the public and produced by Church on the Ridge as a gift to the community. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, all funds raised go directly toward event production, with any surplus reserved to support future celebrations.
Sponsorship inquiries for 2027 may be directed to Jeff Mihal, Red, White & Boom Event Planner, at [email protected].
Every aspect of Red, White & Boom is guided by five core values:
- Excellence
- Integrity
- Family-Friendly Fun
- Safety
- Community
“Our goal is to create a joyful and unforgettable experience for Snoqualmie families and guests as we celebrate both Independence Day and America’s 250th anniversary,” said Jeff Mihal, Event Planner for Red, White & Boom.
Guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs, blankets, and their patriotic spirit — and to arrive early to enjoy dinner, activities, and prime fireworks viewing locations.
