4th of July Fireworks

I know the Disney fireworks are always great, but for the 4th of July does any particular park go beyond the norm?

You can see MK from the Poly beach on the 3rd. Then on the 4th I would see the fireworks at DHS. They only have fireworks on NYE (seen those 2x) and the 4th!

Oh that's right. I can't get used to that! Thanks!

I actually did see them there, back in late June of 2005. The park was closed one evening to everyone except the Pampered Chef consultants who earned it as an incentive trip. My DW earned it for us.

MK & EP both do a very special fireworks on the 4th of July. As pp said, MK does shoot off the same fireworks on the 3rd. Crowds will be fierce at MK on the 4th. DHS also features a fireworks display on the 4th of July. This fireworks display features modern music and is very similar to the fireworks in my hometown.

All 3 fireworks displays are on youtube.

I would personally go for the MK on the 3rd and then head to Epcot for the 4th.

I hear that EP is much more manageable on the 4th of July.

What are the fireworks like from SSR for the 4th? Is it better to see them from there as opposed to braving the crowds at Epcot or DHS? (We are planning on watching MK fireworks on the 3rd.)
