Sunland-Tujunga 4th of July Parade Is Back

The Sunland-Tujunga 4th of July parade is planned to go forward this year after the city reversed an earlier decision that would have cut funding for the 50-year tradition, council President Lydia Grant told the board at its June 10, 2026 general meeting. The Sunland-Tujunga Neighborhood Council committed $3,000 toward parade costs and $300 toward a council float.

The office of Councilmember Monica Rodriguez plans to donate $5,000 and to have the Department of Transportation waive its $5,000 fee, the minutes state. Members of the public can make donations at sunlandtujungajuly4thparade.weebly.com or via the parade's Facebook page.
