DH, DD(6) and I plan a visit over the 4th of July holiday. What can you tell me about special events? Fireworks viewing? Will the park be packed? What do I need to know?
It's a busy time of year. The 4th itself is strangely not that busy for most of the day. It's mid-late afternoon that it starts to get packed and people start getting their fireworks spots very early (mid-afternoon usually).
I have never visited around the fourth, as we try to avoid holiday times. So I cannot tell you anything specific. If you have not seen it, this general summer advice may be helpful - "Getting The Most Out of a Summer Visit To DLR" www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1345319
