Spend July 4th in Orlando, Florida

Independence Day is fast approaching, and there’s no better place to celebrate than Orlando, Florida! From spectacular fireworks displays to fun-filled family activities, Orlando has something for every kind of traveler. Whether you’re a die-hard Disney fan, an event seeker or simply looking to make some unforgettable memories with your family, Orlando is the place to be this July 4th.

Fireworks at the Fountain

One of the most iconic Independence Day celebrations in Orlando is the Fireworks at the Fountain. This year marks the 47th Annual Fireworks at the Fountain celebration in downtown Orlando at the city’s beautiful Lake Eola Park. The festivities kick off at 4 pm, featuring live entertainment, family-friendly activities, and an array of food and drink options available from on-site vendors. Feel free to bring your picnic blankets, chairs and coolers filled with your favorite snacks and nonalcoholic beverages. And yes, your furry friends are welcome too!

The grand fireworks display begins at 9:10 pm and promises to be nothing short of spectacular. The finale includes a dazzling display set to a patriotic performance by the Orlando Concert Band. Best of all, this event is free and open to the public, making it an ideal outing for families and individuals alike.

Disney Fireworks on July 3 and 4

If you’re a fan of all things Disney, then you’re in for a treat this Independence Day! Disney’s nightly fireworks displays at Magic Kingdom and Epcot are magical any time of year, but they take on an extra layer of enchantment during the 4th of July weekend. Please note that you must have a park ticket to see these displays.

You can catch the patriotic-themed fireworks at Magic Kingdom each night or head over to Epcot for an equally mesmerizing show that includes fireworks, music, and special lighting effects. But why stop there? Make your 4th of July in Orlando truly unforgettable with a Disney Fireworks Cruise. Departing from Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club Resort, these cruises chart a course to the International Gateway near World Showcase Lagoon for a celebration featuring fireworks, lasers, and synchronized audio. There are also options at the Magic Kingdom resorts area for even more viewing pleasure.

Promenade at Sunset Walk Star Spangled Celebration

For those looking for a more relaxed, yet equally festive experience, head to the Promenade at Sunset Walk. This walkable entertainment and shopping hub will host the Star Spangled Celebration, a free, live music event featuring DFALC in concert, followed by the Sunset Walk Independence Fireworks Spectacular.

Entertainment includes special guest DJ Scotty B and the DFALC Guitar Army on the Main Stage, Bar Fly in concert with DJ Elie-Rok on the South Side Stage, and DJ Rick GZ on the Promenade Plaza Stage. The event runs from 3 pm to 11 pm, offering plenty of time to soak in the festivities.

Party in the Park & Fireworks

Another fantastic option for celebrating Independence Day is the Party in the Park & Fireworks event in Winter Garden. Bring a chair, blanket, or find a spot in the grass for this annual tradition. With live music, family activities, food, and more, it’s an evening of fun for all ages. Keep your eyes on the sky for one of the best firework displays in West Orange County. And don’t forget to explore Downtown Winter Garden, which will be decked out in patriotic decor to add to the festive atmosphere.

Monumental Fourth of July in Kissimmee

For those residing on the southern side of Orlando, the Monumental 4th of July in Kissimmee is a must-see. Hosted at Kissimmee Lakefront Park, this free event features a booming firework spectacular set to light up the sky at 10 pm on July 4th.
