Unless I missed it:

Nothing yet announced for MK or Epcot 7/3 or 7/4.
No capacity limitations.

Cutbacks due to light attendance over the past 2 years?

No HEA on July 3-4th so, I expect Celebrate America to Return.....

TDO always waits till like the last minute to announce July 4th for some weird reason.....

Heat advisory

 

[DCBaker]

Walt Disney World has added Disney’s Celebrate America! – A Fourth of July Concert in the Sky to the calendar on July 3 and 4 at 9:20pm.

When we were there one 7/4 , some dedicated guests starting staking their spot by the Lagoon at Epcot by 1pm for the night fireworks. Some just want to sit there most of the day to get that prime viewing spot.

Epcot event news incoming?

Epcot event news incoming?

Hopefully they adjust after last year. Having the finale barrage over american adventure was a big failure for visibility for around 80% of the park

Or they're adjusting it by not doing anything.

 

[Doberge]

Nothing about MK hour extensions yet, or are we not expecting extensions? I believe last year MK was open until midnight on July 3 and 1am on July 4.

If its less humid and there's a breeze it may be a non issue. Show sounded great at least.

11pm on July 3-4th.

I can't fathom Epcot not doing a July 4th Tag. The Questions are: where will the Final Barge be? Also, if Epcot can get their messaging right if The Tag is only on the 4th. Not both 3-4th........

They extended it from 10PM to 11PM.

(sarcasm emphasized)

Far cry from the 1AM close.

Also Fireworks at 9:20? seriously? It will barely be dark.

Hopefully, Midnight or 1am will be back next year with Starlight.....

MK had 9pm July 4th Fireworks for Decades! IDK why 9:20 is the favored Time.....(until July 6th)

Aren’t they always at the same time that HEA would usually play?

Yep, 9:20 HEA through July 2nd & July 5th.

They've always been able to run 2 parades with an 11PM close.


Operationally a 9:20 fireworks makes a 10PM close easier than 10PM fireworks with a 10PM close.

 

[Cooldip]

For several years, MK July 4 schedule was 9pm Fireworks, 10pm & Midnight MSEP. It almost seemed like they wanted to get the fireworks “over with.”

 

[jrhwdw]

Would be nice if Epcot is confirmed!......
