Why are we not hearing about The Trump Administration’s unprecedented 4th of July celebrations in D.C.?
The events cover a vast stretch of the National Mall and West Potomac Park, with over 800 acres utilized or set aside as viewing areas for the multi-day programming and historic fireworks display
World-Record Fireworks: The administration is coordinating with the Pennsylvania-based firm Pyrotecnico to fire off over 850,000 fireworks across the Reflecting Pool, West Potomac Park, and the Potomac River. The 40-minute display is intended to break the Guinness World Record for the largest fireworks display in history.
Massive Airshow: The celebration includes a sweeping Fourth of July Airshow featuring hundreds of military planes that will span the skies over the National Mall beginning in the afternoon. The new Air Force One will fly over.
Unprecedented Security Measures: The Department of Homeland Security has designated the event as a National Special Security Event—the highest level of federal security. This requires strict entry screening and brings security perimeters and deployments that surpass those usually seen at presidential inaugurations.
