This summer, four miles of the city's largest public space — its streets — open for a community celebration in East Portland. Portland Sunday Parkways, presented by Kaiser Permanente, returns on June 28, 2026, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Activity areas along the route feature vendor marketplaces, family-friendly activities, and live entertainment. Free, all ages, no registration required.

Celebrate the 250th anniversary of the U.S.A. For nearly half of the country's history, families from all over the region have flocked to the historic Oaks Amusement Park for a front-row seat at a dazzling fireworks display, and this year promises to be a delightful day filled with the joys of our nation's milestone birthday! **Tickets are only available online; no onsite sales. Everyone ages 3 and older must have a ticket to enter the park including non-riders. Tickets include access to the rides.
