Monte Rio hosts the best Fourth of July celebration in the region. With BBQ's, live music, water parade, and fabulous fireworks display -- it is a must see experience. The town also hosts an antique auto show, easter egg hunt and numerous seasonal activities. Monte Rio is also home to the only movie theatre in the Lower Russian River Region.
- 4th of July Boat Parade,. Fireworks, and water-spray-theater spectacular, on Monte Rio beach. Local stores and families decorate canoes and boats as floats and drift pass the crowd to patriotic music from a boombox. True Americana.
- Rio Theater, 20396 Bohemian Highway (intersection of Bohemian Highway and Highway 116), ☎ +1 707 865-4190. World War II-era quonset hut that has been converted into an independent movie theater. Local legend has it that the fabric adorning the ceiling is from Christo's "Running Fence" exhibit that crossed Marin and Sonoma counties in the 1970s. When the river floods, this theater does, too.
Buy
Monte Rio has minimal shopping, though there are shops with works from local artists around The Rio Theatre and a wine and cheese boutique with an extensive collection of limited production local Sonoma Wines. You can also buy groceries, get a haircut, and some minor hardware items along Highway 116 and at the Bohemian Highway.

gollark: Neat, how does that work? Just tracking how far it goes?
gollark: An alternative which should be longer-range would be CC-style multilateration "GPS".
gollark: I think navigation upgrades have bad range limits.
gollark: Oh, for the height map thing you might want to look into the various ways to do navigation.
