Outside of the theme parks, the two biggest firework shows in Orlando are in Downtown Orlando and the historic city of Sanford, Florida. On July 4, 2018, the city of Sanford will light the sky up with fireworks from just outside the marina along the Sanford Riverwalk along Lake Monroe for Star Spangled Sanford.
Star Spangled Sanford
Sanford celebrates independence day with live music and play areas for children. The fun starts at 4PM and continues until 10 PM with the fireworks taking place at 9:15 PM. Most notable for their German food, the Sanford mainstay Hollerbach’s Willow Tree Cafe has celebrated America’s Independence in years past with hamburgers on July 4 with dining Al fresca. There will be games and activities for adults and children leading up to the fireworks. The kids can also cool off at the splash pad at Fort Mellon Park that is open until 8 PM.
