The buffet is loaded, the drinks are chilled, and the fireworks are ready to burst! Join us for the best Independence Day party of the year!
The Inn at Taughannock Falls is delighted to be bringing back it's famous Independence Day celebration yet again for 2026! This amazing, fantabulous, exciting, jubilant, exquisite, and marvelous party will kick off at 5:30PM. Noon Fifteen and City Limits will be entertaining the crowd and rocking things along as our live music bands of the night!
We're always very proud to sponsor the local fireworks show, and we're happy to do it again this year! The 20 minute display will start around 10PM depending on light.
The party will be hosted as usual in the Enchantment Garden, the same headquarters of our Tuesdays at Taughannock Burger Night events which run 5-8PM every Tuesday. The Garden will be in full swing with all fire features lit and all patios available. The tent will house our multi-course barbeque buffet, AND our Fireplace Patio bar will be open and operating not just our Mazzarita Margarita station but our full-action burger bar as well.
Tickets for Adults (12yrs and older) are $75 per person and this covers entry to the event and all food service, as well as one guaranteed parking space per order, and the best viewing possible for our on-property fireworks show. Children ages 5-12 are half price, and children 4 and under are free. Bar service is available for purchase with cash or card. Some Taughannock seasonal favorites will be up as signature drinks for this event, and we're featuring a great combination of local beer and wine as well, such as our favorite Lucky Hare Millenial Falcon and Ithaca Beer Apricot Wheat.
