We are only a few weeks away from America’s big 250th birthday celebration! Are you looking for ways to celebrate? Start by purchasing some red, white, and blue gear to wear from the Disney Americana collection. From July 3rd – 5th, look to the skies for the Disney’s Celebrate America! – A Fourth of July Concert in the Sky at Magic Kingdom and the Heartbeat of Freedom fireworks at EPCOT. Want even more ways to commemorate the occasion? I recommend enjoying some festive snacks while you’re in the parks! If you’re wondering what’s available, keep reading for details.

Sam Eagle Popcorn Bucket
No Fourth of July celebration would be complete without a specialty popcorn bucket. To take home the epitome of American patriotism, you may want to purchase a Sam Eagle popcorn bucket. This souvenir popcorn bucket will be available at various locations around Disney World. There is a limit of two per person, per transaction. Get it while supplies last!
Hooray for the Red, White, and Blue!
As a reminder, you will also be able to find a number of patriotic snacks at Disney Resort Hotels beginning June 15th as well. The celebration is heating up, just as summer is heating up! Make sure you stay hydrated out there and don’t forget the sunscreen. The crowds over Fourth of July weekend will be intense, so we have a couple of additional tips:
- Make use of Early Theme Park Entry if you’re eligible
- Allow plenty of time to get to your destination when using Disney transportation
- Check wait times and consider prioritizing indoor attractions (for an A/C break) during the heat of the day
- Don’t forget to ride Soarin’ Across America to experience our beautiful country, from sea to shining sea!
Speaking of Soarin’ Across America, if you can’t make it to Disney World this Fourth of July, we have a full ride POV video on the MouseHouseNewsNet YouTube channel. Check it out to experience the attraction for yourself! Stay tuned to MouseHouseNews.net for more on everything Disney World. We’ll see you real soon!
