There is no better way to celebrate the Fourth of July in La Jolla, California, more than the La Jolla Cove fireworks, a tradition a quarter century in the making. Our mission is promote both patriotism and community spirit by preserving the annual Fourth of July observance for the community of La Jolla and the citizens of San Diego County, California, through the presentation of a fireworks display and concert.
On June 25th Marco Gonzalez filed a lawsuit seeking to stop the 26th annual La Jolla Community Fireworks. The Foundation is shocked and saddened that one attorney would go to such extreme lengths seeking to cancel our community's celebration of our nation's independence. The Foundation believes strongly in taking a stand. The event has been enjoyed by families and visitors throughout La Jolla for decades, and is part of the fabric of our community.
The 26th annual Independence Day fireworks show at La Jolla Cove will go on. San Diego Superior Court Judge Linda Quinn ruled Wednesday against CERF's lawsuit seeking to cancel the event based on concerns about pyrotechnics causing water pollution.
The Fourth of July celebrates our country's freedoms, and we intend to vigorously defend those freedoms here. We look forward to continuing the celebration with you this Fourth of July.
