Every year, hundreds of people gather at the AAA Four Diamond Grand Geneva Resort & Spa for a sparkling Independence Day celebration featuring food, fun, and fireworks. This year, Grand Geneva is excited to expand the annual affair into a four-day fete that supports the Lake Geneva Area Food Pantry by asking each attendee to donate two non-perishable food items upon entering the resort grounds that will be used to assist local community members in need. The resort welcomes residents of surrounding areas to join the merriment while relaxing in the resort's breathtaking setting.

Entertainment will begin on Friday, July 1, and will continue throughout the weekend, featuring festivities such as live music performances, a Champagne brunch and other epicurean events, magic shows, interactive DJs, a water skiing show, a 5K walk/run, and a concert by the nationally acclaimed band Cowboy Mouth. Children visiting the Grand Geneva and Timber Ridge Lodge can also look forward to exciting activities such as face painting, arts and crafts, a bounce house with a slide, karaoke, raffle prizes, and special appearances by Bruce the Moose.

Whether residents are looking to experience fun music performances, an extended weekend vacation with family, or just want to support a local charity, the Grand Geneva's Fourth of July weekend will offer something to suit every need. Visitors hoping to participate in the weekend's activities available only to hotel guests are encouraged to reserve accommodations at the Timber Ridge Lodge or the Grand Geneva Resort & Spa.
