News Walt Disney World Expands Fourth of July Fireworks to Three Nights in 2026

Missed opportunity to market it as 'Disney's Semiquincentennial Great American Celebration!' with branded merch I would totally buy up 😩😂

The 54th anniversary of Disney World could've been the Quinquagenary Quadrennium!

I would buy all 3 if they had t-shirts. Or pins. Just to see how small the font would need to be on the pins...

Now all we need is a *good* 4th of July fireworks show.

But far be it for me, a pixie duster shill, to be critical of anything Disney.

I would anticipate Epcot expand their hours on July 3, 4 and 5 to a 10 PM close, Magic Kingdom potentially to midnight (or 1am) along with an 8 AM open.

We'll see about Epcot ...they don't do 10pm every July 4th...... I'm expecting the pre 2017 schedule at MK: Celebrate America at 9pm, Starlight at 10:30 & Midnight.. or something like that.

Well shall see if this holds. Last year, or maybe it was the year before that, they announce 2 nights of Heart Beat of Freedom but shortly there after retracted that and amended the official schedule to the single performance.

I wonder if they will setup a temporary launch site somewhere or just not do perimeters since the MK perimeter launch site was demolished.
