[SALEM, OR] The 4th of July Spectacular is returning to the Oregon State Fair and Exposition Center! Get ready for a fun night with delicious food, classic carnival rides, dancing to Lil Jon and the Ying Yang Twins, and culminating with an exciting, free fireworks show.

The gates open at 4 p.m., allowing for plenty of time for family fun before the fireworks begin at 10 p.m. Rainier Amusement’s carnival will be in full swing, featuring more than a dozen rides, including Tilt-A-Whirl, Yo-Yo, and a Merry Go Round.

Of course, no 4th of July celebration would be complete without your favorite fair foods like corn dogs and cotton candy, so be sure to bring your appetite. We’ll have food and drink options for kids and adults to enjoy.

In the evening, get ready for a party in the L.B. Day Amphitheater! Lil Jon and the Ying Yang Twins will take the stage to perform iconic hits like “Get Low” and “Salt Shaker”. The duo credits their 2003 team-up with Lil Jon, “the King of Crunk”, for their nationwide success, so this performance will be one for the books. Doors open at 7 p.m., and the show starts at 8 p.m.

The party isn’t over once the music stops! Our 20-minute fireworks show will begin just as the show ends, so stick around to watch as they light up the sky. We recommend bringing a blanket or chairs so you can enjoy the show more comfortably. The 4th of July Spectacular fireworks show is supported by a grant of Transient Occupancy Tax from the City of Salem.
