Paradise Casino plans free July 3 celebration with fireworks in Yuma
Paradise Casino’s free July 3 celebration runs 6 to 10 p.m. with Checker’d Past, a stunt team and 9:30 p.m. fireworks at 450 Quechan Drive.

Paradise Casino will open its 3rd of July Celebration to the public on Friday, July 3, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. at 450 Quechan Drive in Yuma. The all-ages event is free and will feature food and drink vendors, live entertainment from Checker’d Past, a motorcycle stunt team, a face painter and fireworks scheduled for 9:30 p.m.
The timing gives local families a nighttime holiday option before Independence Day travel peaks. A 6 p.m. start helps avoid the worst of the summer heat, and the late fireworks show offers a full evening of activities without a ticket price. Paradise Casino says everyone is welcome, making the event an easy choice for residents who want a public celebration close to home.

The casino is owned and operated by the Quechan Tribe on the Fort Yuma Indian Reservation, and early-July fireworks have been part of its holiday programming for years. In 2024, the annual 3rd of July event drew around 60 food vendors and included free snow cones, popcorn and cotton candy for kids, along with a beer garden for adults. An earlier fireworks event page said the casino has used its south parking lot for booths and free treats such as popcorn, cotton candy, snow cones, soft drinks and water.


For Yuma County, the celebration adds another accessible summer outing to the local calendar and gives families a public holiday option on the Quechan side of town. Paradise Casino lists 888-777-4946 for more information.
