KB 66th Fourth of July Parade

The Key Biscayne 4th of July Parade began in 1959 when locals Tommy Sikes and Arthur Yehle invited friends to march through the streets in celebration, complete with a makeshift band, “The Chowder Chompers,” and kids on decorated bikes.

Today, 66 years later, the all-volunteer parade features around 55 entries and costs $70,000 to produce. Known as “The Best Lil’ Hometown Parade in South Florida,” it’s supported by t-shirt and button sales, a festive BBQ, and generous local sponsors.
