Independence Celebration
Fun for the Fourth!
Event Update, 8 p.m. ~ Our events team officially just gave “two thumbs up.” That means our Fun For the Fourth celebration is back on track after a short rain delay. The band is on the stage now, and fireworks are still scheduled to shoot off shortly after 9 p.m.
𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗨𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲, 𝟲:𝟰𝟱 𝗽.𝗺. ~ The radar is showing some rain moving our way, so the band is taking a break until the weather passes. Fireworks are still planned for 9:15, and for those that are already at the resort, we are allowing re-entry if you choose to leave.
Update as of 3 p.m., July 4 ~ Due to a quick and sudden burst of rain, Cake Fight will not be taking the stage to begin our Fun for the Fourth celebration. Lord Nelson will still take the stage at 6 p.m. and lead us into a spectacular fireworks show. All other events will continue as planned.
Parking passes for our Independence Day celebration are sold out. There will be no passes sold at the gate.
We're serving up an extra dose of "fun for the fourth" while we celebrate Independence Day during our ongoing Summer Celebration Series. Bring the entire family on Thursday, July 4, to jam to live music from Lord Nelson, followed by an electrifying display of fireworks that will illuminate the sky.
