Ontario Liberty Fest

Ontario Liberty Fest The official page for the Ontario Liberty Fest, formerly the Ontario 4th of July Festival in Marshall Park, Ontario Ohio.

Since its beginning in 1969, the Ontario 4th of July festival has aimed to represent "Fun for All Ages." After some period of time, the festival stopped due to the absence of funding and insurance. In 2002, a small, non-profit committee of volunteers saw the need for the re-birth of our yearly, community event. This new festival committee breathed new life into the Ontario Fourth of July Festival

in 2003. The Ontario Fourth of July Festival features live entertainment with a wide variety of activities for the entire family, ending the evening with a spectacular fireworks display. As the festival continues to grow, in 2022 the entire festival is moving to Marshall Park in Ontario. In 2022 the festival will have many of the same events, new events, more food vendors, concerts and bigger fireworks!

We’re just over one month away from the 2026 Ontario Liberty Fest, and this year is going to be bigger than ever!

Fireworks are always a favorite, but in 2026, we’re taking it to another level with a high-powered laser show before and during the fireworks, synchronized to a special America 250th Tribute on Mix 106.1 FM.

The laser show will take place inside Marshall Park, shooting across the park above the crowd for an incredible one-of-a-kind experience. To see the full effect, you’ll need to be in Marshall Park, so be sure to grab your spot in the park, at the VIP tables, or near the food truck areas.

Get ready for a bigger, brighter, louder, and more unforgettable Ontario Liberty Fest!
