Disneyland Resort 4th of July Festivities
‘Celebrate America!’ at the Happiest Place on Earth this Fourth of July Weekend
Special Fireworks Display, a Patriotic Parade, Spirited Merchandise and a Heroic Encounter with Captain America Highlight the Reasons to Visit Disneyland Resort This Weekend
ANAHEIM, Calif. (June 29, 2017) – For generations of guests, a visit to the Disneyland Resort is synonymous with fireworks, nighttime spectaculars and celebrations with friends and family. Those experiences make the Happiest Place on Earth an ideal place to spend the Fourth of July this weekend, with fireworks, a parade, a patriotic float and even Captain America on hand as guests celebrate the U.S.A.’s Independence Day.
At Disneyland Park
Guests will enjoy a special patriotic fireworks display, “Disney’s Celebrate America! – A Fourth of July Concert in the Sky.” This fireworks show is presented nightly at 9:30 at Disneyland Park, from July 1-4.
Guests also may watch the nightly Main Street Electrical Parade, which includes the patriotic “To Honor America” finale, at 8:45 p.m. and 10:45 p.m. The finale salutes America with dancers in patriotic dress, a 118-foot-long illuminated American flag and a majestic bald eagle fashioned from brilliant golden lights. Guests may enjoy the Electrical Parade for only a few more weeks, as it performs each night through August 20.
And in Town Square on Main Street, U.S.A., the Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln attraction continues to inspire generations of guests with patriotic storytelling, a famous speech and a salute to President Abraham Lincoln.
At Disney California Adventure Park
On July 4 only, a special patriotic pre-show leads into nightly performances of the “World of Color” spectacular, at 9 and 10:15, in the Paradise Pier area of Disney California Adventure.
While exploring the Summer of Heroes, guests may encounter the most patriotic of all Super Heroes – Captain America himself! Captain America and Spider-Man appear daily in Hollywood Land, near the all-new Guardians of Galaxy – Mission: BREAKOUT! attraction.
Themed Merchandise Resort-wide
Guests searching for Americana-themed merchandise will discover a variety of raglan-style t-shirts, tank tops, trading pins and accessories, including lanyards, a Minnie Mouse headband and more, at select locations throughout the Disneyland Resort. Red-white-and-blue, Captain America-themed merchandise, accessories and toys can also be found throughout the resort including at the Studio Store and The Collector’s Warehouse, both located in Hollywood Land at Disney California Adventure.
At Hotels of the Disneyland Resort and Napa Rose
Hotel guests will enjoy spectacular fireworks viewing from the rooftop pool deck at Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel. For club-level guests staying at the Disneyland Hotel and Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, the E-Ticket Club and Craftsman Club — the concierge clubs in both hotels, respectively — also offer ideal viewing of the fireworks spectacular.
At the award-winning Napa Rose restaurant in Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, chefs will give the Vintner’s menu a July 4th flair, adding an all-American wine pairing. Also at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel, Storytellers Café offers special Fourth of July treats.
