BEAUMONT, Texas — Because of the pandemic, last year the City of Beaumont announced it would not have food trucks, vendors or entertainment at it's 34th Annual Fourth of July Celebration.
Last year, Gov. Greg Abbott said that 4th of July gatherings will be allowed, but local leaders had the ability to limit celebrations and crowd size.
However, the City of Beaumont announced in a recent press release that the 35th Annual Fourth July Celebration will not have those same restrictions.
