Joint Cedar Falls, Waterloo Fourth of July Festival Planned; No Fireworks at UNI-Dome This Year

The Cedar Falls Jaycees are combining efforts with the Waterloo Jaycees and the National Cattle Congress this year to host a joint-Cedar Valley Fourth of July festival and fireworks display.

That's a change from the usual separate shows held in the two towns. It also means there will be no fireworks show at the this year.

Instead, Independence Day revelers can head to Cattle Congress on July 6 and 7 for free live music and a fireworks show at 10 p.m. each night.

The bigger fireworks display will be on Saturday. There will also be food vendors and carnival rides, as well as music.
