Lubbock honors sponsors for Fourth on Broadway celebration amid changes

The City Council of Lubbock celebrated the spirit of patriotism and community at the recent Special Recognition Ceremony, honoring the sponsors of the beloved Fourth on Broadway event. Mayor Pro Tem and council members recognized key contributors, including Reliant Energy, Gorilla Law Firm, H E B, and Los Hermanos Familia, for their vital support in continuing this cherished tradition.

The Fourth on Broadway festival, hailed as the largest free festival in Texas, promises a vibrant celebration filled with parades, fireworks, and activities for all ages. This year, the festivities will take place in the fairground parking lot due to weather concerns, ensuring a comfortable experience for attendees. The parade will still proceed along Broadway, rain or shine.

Mayor Pro Tem emphasized the importance of this event, stating, "Lubbock's Fourth on Broadway reflects who we are as a community—patriotic, generous, and deeply committed." The council encourages all citizens to join in the celebration, highlighting the collective effort of sponsors, city staff, and volunteers in making this event possible.

As Lubbock gears up for the Fourth of July, the community's dedication to honoring the nation's independence shines brightly, promising a memorable experience for all.
