The U.S. National Whitewater Center, 5000 Whitewater Center Parkway, hosts one of the most popular 4th of July festivals in Charlotte every year.
The Whitewater Center’s celebration takes place Thursday, July 3, and Friday, July 4, 2025, and features live music, night ops, races, yoga, and Night Ops (illuminated pass activities.) This celebration has not included fireworks in a couple years, so we are assuming it will not this year either.
- Thursday: 6 to 10 p.m.
- Friday: 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.

Admission is free, but parking is $12. There is a cost for regular Whitewater Center activities, and for some activities at the celebration. The live music and yoga are free to enjoy (after parking.)
