Happy 4th of July to all who celebrate!

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!
Lots of people flock to Magic Kingdom and EPCOT for this holiday thanks to their special holiday offerings, one of the most popular being the fireworks in both parks. Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Disney’s Animal Kingdom often celebrate the holiday with special snacks or other offerings, but if you want a show at the end of your day filled with red, white, and blue, Magic Kingdom or EPCOT are the best parks to head to. And what does the celebration look like in Magic Kingdom? Check it out!
We made sure to grab a spot early on for the fireworks, because they’re pretty popular! We certainly weren’t the only ones with that idea, and we noticed families grabbing spots EARLY. If you’re in the parks for any holiday with a special show, we recommend grabbing a spot between 45-60 minutes ahead of time.

Look at the crowds!
This show is different from Magic Kingdom’s usual Happily Ever After show, and only happens a couple of times per year. Again, another reason why it attracts a lot of crowds, so be prepared! This show is called Disney’s Celebrate America! – A Fourth of July Concert in the Sky and begins at 9:20 PM.

It was busy from the castle, to down Main Street
The show had a little bit of a pre-show, with a live DJ on stage in front of the castle!

There’s a DJ!
The show features so many awesome effects on and near the castle. There are projections, smaller fireworks, larger fireworks, and smoke effects.

Let the show begin!
The show is full of lots of red, white, and blue lights on the castle and fireworks in the sky. It’s certainly a great way to feel festive!

They’re so beautiful!
We can’t imagine celebrating the 4th of July without a big fireworks show, and this one is something special!

Look at the sky!
During the show, you’ll hear a lot of patriotic songs, like “America the Beautiful.”

Music, fireworks, lights!
The show truly is one-of-a-kind!

The sky just lights up with this show
Just look how beautiful the fireworks are!

WOW
Once you watch the Fourth of July fireworks, you can see what all the hype is about and why it gets so crowded to watch them!

The show was amazing!
