Magic Kingdom is now at capacity for Annual Passholders on the Fourth of July at Walt Disney World.

The latest Disney Park Pass reservation calendar shows July 4 as unavailable for all types of Annual Pass, including the most expensive Incredi-Pass.

Currently, regular ticket types, which include single-day and multi-day tickets, can still make reservations for Magic Kingdom on July 4.

Park reservations remain available for all other Walt Disney World theme parks for any ticket type.

A Fourth of July fireworks tag, 'The Heartbeat of Freedom," will follow the regular nightly performance of "EPCOT Forever" at 9pm.

Unique items include a Fourth of July Fruit Tart, a blackberry custard topped with fresh berries and a vanilla panna cotta popsicle, available June 27-July 4 at Contempo Café in Disney's Contemporary Resort.

Don't set you car alarm on when the F-35s flyover.

That looks pretty cool!
Those are F-16s in the picture. Is there video of the F-35s?

Ha ha, never happen. Some well connected ponce will muscle their way in to the limelight and the rest of us will have to listen to them describe the footage. "ooh look a red star shaped explosion" I would completely agree if it were shown without commentary.
Well if you want some last minute TS reservations, there seem to be plenty of option available for parities of 2 or more. Including some surprising finds.

When I have gone on Independence Day before (a few years back, not sure when), they have had a camera on a boom on Main Street for live feed to news organizations to pick it up for reports later (a smart move in my opinion — free advertising).
Just looked at the hours. MK closing at 10 tonight and tomorrow, others closing at 9 or earlier. I still think that the parks should be open much later in the summer like they used to be. 9 and 10 pm closings are too early for the summer. In the ‘80s and ‘90s, MK was routinely open until 11 or 12 throughout the summer — without having to pay again — but especially for holidays.

Correction, they close at 11pm tomorrow AFAIK.
