In addition, UAVs (drones) will not be permitted to fly over the parade route or within the event venue. Only official parade participants with credentials will be allowed to enter the staging area and parade route. Please plan ahead—several major roadways will be closed during the parade. All road closures will begin on July 4 from approximately 6:00 am and roads are expected to reopen by 2:00 pm. Please expect heavy traffic and delays in the area for the duration of the event.

The City would like to thank everyone who joined us at the Future of Fremont event hosted by the Silicon Valley Business Journal earlier this month! Over 150 attendees gathered at the Downtown Event Center to hear from experts who are helping to shape Fremont's future.
From pioneering industries like advanced manufacturing and cleantech; to major development projects, such as the opening of Fremont Bank and numerous additions to Capitol Avenue; and to innovative workforce programs like Ohlone College’s Earn and Learn Program as well as Tesla’s Employee Education Assistance (EEA) Program, Fremont has many exciting stories to share.
The Irvington Library will close this summer. The last day of library service will be July 31, 2024. The Alameda County Library (AC Library) will bring new library services to Irvington soon. The Irvington and Fremont Main makerspaces will be combined to provide a more enriched makerspace experience at the Fremont Main Library. AC Library will bring innovative and modern ways to check out books in nearby locations and add an additional pick-up location in South Fremont.
