Berkeley
Kite Festival Last weekend in July.
Located
at the Cesar
Chavez Park, Berkeley Marina
The
park's open rolling hills, and proximity to the Golden Gate's
ever-present winds, make Cesar Chavez Park the perfect site for a kite
festival.

Fourth
of July and Fireworks - Wed. July 4,
2007, 9:30 P.M.
The
fireworks celebration is held every year at Berkeley Marina.
The pyrotechnic display lasts approximately one half-hour. We
are looking into changing the venue to a Lazer light show which will
soften the impact of lost and frightened animals usually affected by the
loud noises of the fireworks. The display is launched from the Berkeley Pier at the foot of
University Avenue, but will be visible from all over the Marina and
elsewhere. Automobile
access is limited, so check the website in advance.
