DC Fourth of July Fireworks Start Time Delayed to 11 PM Amid Security Measures
TL;DR
DC’s Freedom 250 Fourth of July fireworks will now start at 11 p.m. (about 45 minutes) instead of 10:30 p.m. as Secret Service and city officials enforce heightened security for a National Special Security Event, including road closures, Mall magnetometer entry, and rolling military flyovers. A second Anacostia Park show is planned, and organizers aim to wow with 850,000 fireworks in a bid for a world record.
