SUMMER SPECTACULAR! 2026

25th Annual Summer Spectacular on June 27, 2026, at Cameron Park Lake. Food, bands, fireworks. Tickets: $10 adults, $5 kids.

The Summer Spectacular is Cameron Park’s biggest community celebration of the year—a day of fun, food, and festivities capped with a dazzling fireworks show. It’s a chance for families, friends, and neighbors to come together, enjoy great activities, explore local vendors, and soak up the energy of a true community tradition. With food trucks, entertainment, and a fireworks finale lighting up the sky, it’s the kind of event that creates memories and brings the whole community out to celebrate summer.

The Summer Spectacular is largely made possible through the generosity of local businesses, community partners, and residents who help keep this beloved tradition shining bright. Just as in years past, we offer a variety of sponsorship opportunities for organizations looking to connect with thousands of attendees and show their support for this signature community event. We also offer opportunities for small, local vendors to showcase and sell their products. For businesses large and small, there are opportunities to connect with the community and support the Community Services District (CSD) in making this event possible. Check out our sponsorship and vendor opportunities below!

The Summer Spectacular is a very large community event, and it takes a dedicated team to make the day run smoothly. Volunteers help with everything from welcoming guests and supporting activities to keeping the event safe, organized, and enjoyable for thousands of attendees. Their time and energy allow us to offer a high‑quality experience, support local vendors, and ensure the event remains a cherished community tradition. When residents step in to help, the entire celebration shines a little brighter.  If you are interested in volunteering, see the volunteer opportunities below.

If you enjoy watching the fireworks from home or from outside the event, consider making a donation to help offset the cost of the fireworks. Every contribution directly supports the show and ensures we can continue bringing this unforgettable experience not just to those attending, but to the entire community. 

Date: Saturday, June 27th

Time: Gates open at 5:00PM
