Cincinnati, Ohio

The Northside Fourth of July Parade, a yearly event sponsored by the Northside Community Council, is by far one of the most interesting parades you will see in Cincinnati. With its unique and creative floats, it is fun for people of all ages. The mile-long parade, which begins at the northern boundary of Northside and runs south on Hamilton Avenue ending at Hoffner Park, has been a Northside tradition for over 60 years. Cincinnatians from Northside and beyond gather each year with folding chairs and flags to watch the parade from the sidewalks of Hamilton Avenue.
A little boy is playfully tossed into the air while waiting for the Northside 4th of July Parade to begin.
A young skateboarder leans against his deck before the start of the parade.
Spectators near the intersection of Hamilton Avenue and Chase Avenue cheer in excitement as the beginning of the parade approaches.
Locals adorned with plastic bottles and other various recyclable materials spread awareness of issues with the Colerain Township landfill and urge people to oppose doubling the size of Mt. Rumpke.
Friends and members of Tango Del Barrio, an Argentine Tango studio located in Northside, tango down the street in the parade.
Friends and employees of "The House Guy", a local housekeeping and handyman service, join the float dressed in Christmas attire while winter holiday songs play on a loudspeaker.
A woman passes out information about climate change at the parade.
A little boy dressed in 4th of July attire watches a line of antique cars drive past at the parade.

Jim Tarbell, a democrat running for County Commission, tips his hat to parade spectators.
In addition to the parade, Northside also hosts the yearly Northside Rock & Roll Carnival in Hoffner Park. The carnival takes place on the Friday and Saturday of Fourth of July weekend and hosts a variety of local musical acts as well as performances by dancers, fire-breathers and sword-swallowers.
