Connecticut loves Independence Day so much that the events surrounding this iconic holiday begin way before the 4th of July and, more often than not, continue long after that. For all you patriots out there, our Connecticut limo service has put together a list of some of the most exciting Independence Day events set to go down this year in the Constitution State.

As always, the period around Independence Day is quite hectic, and for a more relaxed, stress-free celebration, we recommend hiring our Connecticut car service for all your transportation needs. Leave all the navigation to our professionally trained chauffeurs and avoid the hassle of having to find parking space and alternative routes. Sit back, enjoy the ride in our luxury vehicles, and look forward to arriving at any one of these amazing events; and when you have had enough fun, we will be waiting to drive you safely back to the comfort of your home.

Madison Independence Day Parade

This annual event will be the 39th of its kind and along with celebrating Independence, the Madison Parade will be celebrating Olympic Athletes. The parade will take place in Downtown Madison on the 4th of July. The Madison Parade, as usual, will attract a large crowd consisting of locals as well as out-of-towners, so we recommend that you arrive early and pick a vantage point of your liking. The Parade is set to begin at the Super Stop and Shop Parking Lot, go through the Madison Centre, and halt at the Surf Club for the actual celebration. This event is absolutely free and open to all, so you really don’t have an excuse for missing out on the fun.
