Walt Disney World has posted its official Fourth of July 2026 fireworks schedule, and both Magic Kingdom and EPCOT now show three nights of patriotic entertainment from July 3 through July 5.
The dates line up with Disney’s broader Disney Celebrates America programming for the nation’s 250th anniversary, which runs through Fourth of July weekend.
Magic Kingdom Fourth of July fireworks schedule
Magic Kingdom is scheduled to present Disney’s Celebrate America! – A Fourth of July Concert in the Sky at 9:00 PM on Friday, July 3, Saturday, July 4, and Sunday, July 5, 2026.
Disney’s official schedule record shows a 9:00 PM performance on each of those three dates, followed by no performance for the show on Monday, July 6. The special fireworks presentation has a listed duration of 15 minutes.
Disney’s separate schedule record for Happily Ever After lists no performance on July 3, July 4, and July 5. Happily Ever After returns on Monday, July 6, when Disney currently lists it at 10:00 PM.
EPCOT Fourth of July fireworks schedule
EPCOT is scheduled to run Luminous at 9:00 PM on July 3, July 4, and July 5, followed by Heartbeat of Freedom at 9:15 PM on those same three nights.
Disney’s official schedule record for Heartbeat of Freedom lists the 9:15 PM performance on all three dates, with no performance shown for July 6. Disney’s Luminous record lists the standard 9:00 PM performance on each of the same nights.
What this means for holiday crowds
The three-night schedule should spread out some demand, but Fourth of July weekend is still one of the busiest holiday windows at Walt Disney World. For Magic Kingdom, Main Street, U.S.A. and the hub in front of Cinderella Castle are the core viewing areas. For EPCOT, World Showcase Lagoon is the center of the show.
Guests should still check Disney’s entertainment calendar before heading to the parks, since showtimes can change. As of Disney’s current official schedule, the special Fourth of July fireworks are listed for July 3, July 4, and July 5 only.
