The City of West Allis Events Committee and West Allis Health Department announced on May 6, 2020 that they have made the difficult decision to cancel all City of West Allis community events regularly scheduled through July 4, 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic. Events impacted included the City’s Memorial Day Parade, West Allis Fire Department Open House, Food Truck Fridays at West Allis Farmers Market, and the City’s Independence Day Parade and Fireworks.

The Community Charitly Gala, scheduled for March 28, will be held on October 23. 

The Events Committee and West Allis Health Department will meet in June to reassess City events planned for the latter half of 2020. City events are supported largely by donation.
