Venetian Night

Queen's Landing
The annual parade of boats lavishly decorated with glittering lights, costumed crew and music is one of the season’s best in lakeside entertainment. Patrons can enjoy the display along Chicago’s downtown lakefront. Boats will glide between the Shedd Aquarium and Monroe Harbor only to be followed by an exciting firework display set to music. Parade begins at 8:30 pm and fireworks at 9:30 pm.

Not totally sure what cities/types of events you were considering having here, but I looked for some west coast cities/events that struck me as possible places for someone to stir up trouble.
SF was really the only useful website for the four cities I tried. But here are the links to the sites at least...
San Francisco http://www.sfvisitor.org/visitorinfo/html/memorial_day_events.asp
May 31
Lost Boat Ceremony
A contingent of World War II submarine veterans and their families will participate in a Memorial Day tribute to World War II submariners on "eternal patrol" at 11am. The formal and touching remembrance will conclude with the Lost Boat Ceremony, during which the USS Pampanito's bell is rung and wives and widows of veterans drop 52 carnations into the Bay - one for each of the submarines lost during World War II.
July 4
Any of a number of 4th of July events
LA
http://www.ci.la.ca.us/
not finding much for LA...website for the city isn't great as far as events in my searching
San Diego
http://www.sannet.gov
The events calendar only is helpful for a week out unless you go day by day searching...
Seattle
http://www2.ci.seattle.wa.us/events/default.asp
We've got to get organized.
We have so much incredibly valuable information on these threads.
FYI: I have uploaded JustPiper's Chicago events list to the Yahoo back-up group.
Any other lists you all think that we may need sorted and organized, please let me know.
Thanks,
Vel
