Universal Orlando announces July 4th happenings

Universal Orlando is offering guests three ways to celebrate the Fourth of July holiday.

Universal 360:
Universal 360: A Cinesphere Spectacular, is a high-tech lagoon show at Universal Studios featuring famous scenes from more than 100 Universal Pictures films. The show uses four-story-tall, 360-degree projection “cinespheres,” original music, outdoor speakers, lasers and pyrotechnic effects to place guests in the center of their favorite films. The Fourth of July Cinesphere show will also feature a special, high-tech, patriotic finale, complete with a dazzling fireworks display. The show begins at 10 p.m.
Fireworks will no longer be visible from CityWalk or Universal’s Islands of Adventure because of the development of new attractions underway across areas of the resort previously used to support fireworks displays.

Islands of Adventure:
Islands of Adventure will remain open extra hours on July 4. The park will be open until 11 p.m.

CityWalk:
A live band and street performers will perform at an All-American Barbecue Celebration at CityWalk from 5 to 9 p.m.
