July 4th Events in Casper, WY – Live Music & Flyover at Alcova Lake

The highlight of the afternoon takes to the air at 12:15 PM, when a flyover passes right over the lake as a salute to the holiday. It's a quick, unforgettable moment, so you'll want to be settled in and looking skyward before the clock hits quarter past noon.

There’s no better place to celebrate Independence Day than out on the water, and this year Alcova Resort is bringing the whole day together, patriotic skies, live music, and that easy lakeside summer feeling from noon until late. Whether you’re camping for the weekend, pulling the boat up to the marina, or driving out just for the day, we’ve got a full slate of fun planned for July 4th.

A Flyover & Salute Over the Lake – 12:15 PM

The highlight of the afternoon takes to the air at 12:15 PM, when a flyover passes right over the lake as a salute to the holiday. It’s a quick, unforgettable moment, so you’ll want to be settled in and looking skyward before the clock hits quarter past noon.

Get out to the lake early so you don’t miss it – parking and prime viewing spots fill up fast on the 4th, and you won’t want to be hustling to find a place as the planes come through. Arrive with time to spare, find your spot along the shore, and have the whole crew ready to look up.

Live Music All Day Long

We’re keeping the good times rolling from midday into the night with two great acts taking the stage:

  • Aquile and Company – 12:00 PM to 3:00 PM
  • KWB – 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM


Kick off the afternoon with Aquile and Company setting the tone right around the flyover, then come back as the sun drops for KWB to carry the celebration deep into the evening. Bring your chairs, your dancing shoes, and plenty of friends.

Make a Day of It

Pack the cooler, grab the sunscreen, and plan to stay a while. With the marina, the shoreline, and live music going all day, there’s no reason to rush off. Come early, stake out your spot, and settle in for one of the best days of the summer.

We can’t wait to celebrate with you. If you’re planning to camp or launch a boat for the holiday, reach out ahead of time so we can help you get set. Whether you’re searching for Fourth of July events near Alcova Lake, a full day of live music at Alcova Resort, or simply the best spot to spend Independence Day in Wyoming, this is the place to be, we’ll see you at the lake on July 4th!
