What time are the fireworks shows on July 4?

[basketlacey]

Does anyone know when the fireworks will be at the various parks on July 4? I looked on the fireworks calendar and it doesn't mention anything specific.

Thanks for your help! Trying to plan our night!

Any recommendations? We are thinking about going to DHS since we have never seen fireworks there. Is EPCOT just Illuminations? Is there a 4th of July tag? I assume MK will be a madhouse or I would consider trying to see two of the shows. We are staying at the Boardwalk on 7/4. Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

We went last 4th of July. Ended up at Epcot. Everywhere was insanely busy. Super super fun and completely awesome. MK did the same show the night before and the night after the 4th last year. We saw it the night before. We did see the end of the dhs fireworks was we were walking over the bridge near France at Epcot on our way out the international gateway. So you can always try to claim one of those spots and see both. Just be prepared for massive crowds wherever you end up and enjoy it. We ended up picking a spot a couple hours before the fireworks and just got some food lounged on the sidewalk and chatted with everyone around. It was quite enjoyable. We would do it again in a heartbeat and may next year.

Epcot is illuminations with a bunch added on at the end. Was spectacular last year.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that the MK was going to show its 360 degree 4th of July fireworks all week, from the 30th to the 4th.

We've seen them, and they're worth checking out, but we keep hearing AWESOME stuff about the Epcot IllumiNations version, which we'll see this year.

Here are the times of the fireworks' presentations.

MK has the same show on the 3rd and 4th. Epcot and the Studios, only on the 4th.

Thank you everyone! I appreciate the info. Now, what to do, what to do....

I haven't yet decided where to stay (we check into a rental house on 7/5). I'm thinking somewhere on the boardwalk and try and catch EPCOT and HS.

That was a situation that happened last year (2013) as a special promotion for the (often lackluster) "Limited Time Magic."

I went to Epcot one year on the fourth and found that the crowds weren't at all bad. So if it were me - I'd catch Epcot fireworks on the fourth and do MK another day if they show them.

The only other day at MK will be July 3, this year.

I also read that they would be doing the fireworks all wk at Mk this year! How strange,

I'm going to do HS this year on the 4th as it seems more us.
And do Mk on the 3rd Epcots don't really entice me like the others.

While NO calendar is (or could be) 100% accurate, the WDW Travel The Disney Travel Agent Calendar
is consistently the earliest-listed and best-maintained (frequently updated) of all of the on-line calendars.

I read that on wdwinfo.com, but now that I look at it closer I think they still have the 2013 times posted.

The extra shows last year were for Limited Time Magic.

It's back to just the 3rd and 4th this year.
