HEATH CITY HALL, 200 LAURENCE DRIVE
For a patriotic hometown American experience, join the festivities at the City of Heath’s Annual Independence Day Parade.
Plan your parade entry with plenty of categories to choose from. Or just kick back and watch the parade along the route. Parade entry awards will be presented during a patriotic celebration immediately after the parade in Towne Center Park featuring a live barbershop quartet and free popsicles and pie.
Parade entry is free, but registering for the event means your entry will get a shout-out by the official parade announcer.
Registration for the Parade is now closed but you can still participate. Just go to the check-in tent on arrival prior to the Parade start at 9 a.m.
The intersection of Laurence Drive and FM 740/FM 1140 will be closed during the parade on July 4 from approximately 9:00 a.m. to 9:45 a.m. To avoid inconvenience or delays, please plan an alternate route or time frame for driving through the area.

We’d love to hear from you. Please use our volunteer form in the link below to contact us.
WEATHER CONTINGENCY
Weather updates for City events will be posted regularly on our social media channels. Please check these channels in the event of inclement weather. Because many students and children participate in this event, the City will follow the Rockwall ISD’s delay protocol for lightening strikes and severe weather. The parade may be delayed up to 10 a.m. only, due to traffic concerns.
Veterans Float
The City of Heath invites veterans and active members of the U.S. Military to ride in the parade on the Veterans Float.
The float will be parked in the fire bay at City Hall, 200 Laurence. Please arrive by 8:15 a.m. and enjoy coffee, donuts and camaraderie with fellow veterans. The City thanks John Holmsley and Bob Quimby for providing the trailer for the Veterans Float year after year. We also thank the National Charity League mother/daughter teams for decorating the float so beautifully.
Online ordering of 2023 Heath swag is now closed, but you can contact AllSports directly and still place your order.
