Every summer, Brentwood comes together to celebrate one of the community ' s most cherished traditions— the Brentwood Fourth of July Celebration.

The celebration begins on Thursday, July 3, with the annual Battle of the Barrel, where local volunteer fire companies compete in one of Brentwood’ s most popular traditions. Festivities continue on July 4 with the Firecracker 5K, the Fourth of July Parade, and a spectacular evening fireworks display. cKeesport rentwood
