Come on, folks — put some dandy in your Yankee Doodle by spiffing up your home, yard or car with red, white and blue.
This 4th of July the City will be “Celebrating in Place” and encouraging residents to show their spirit by decorating their front yard and/or cars this year in the theme Celebrating in Place.
NOTE: Decorate your own yard, not neighborhoods.

Awards for Front Yard or Car Decorations will be given in the following categories:
- Best Entry (Highland Cup)
- Most Patriotic (Highland Saucer)
- Best QuaranTeam (Highland Spoon)
- Best Car-in-Place
- Mayor’s Award
How to Enter:

Please remember: No block parties
4th of July block parties, although a Piedmont tradition, will not be permitted this year due to the Alameda County Health Officer’s Shelter in Place orders, which prohibit public or private gathering of individuals who are not members of the same household or social bubble.
The City will not issue any street closure permits for 4th of July activities, and residents must not block their own street for festivities of any kind.
