4th of July Fireworks in Orlando

From Theresa Johnston, About.com GuideJune 22, 2012

Follow me on:

No need to worry about fireworks being canceled because of dry conditions this year.  Most Orlando area cities will be hosting a fireworks display this 4th of July.

In addition to regular night-time events, all of Orlando's major theme parks will be having special fireworks displays. For an inexpensive way to celebrate July 4th, see local city fireworks displays. Younger children might enjoy daytime events, parades and celebrations.  Area museums and parks will be offering special events throughout the day including free admission to the Morse Museum of American Art.

Avoid the crowds and have a low-key, family friendly way to spend the day.

Can't get enough fireworks?  Get an early start at Cranes Roost Park's Red Hot & Boom - a popular pre-Independence Day fireworks extravaganza on July 3rd . This year's event starts at 4:00 with fireworks around 9:30.

What would be your recommendation for the best family friendly fireworks display? I know they all start late, but we have a 5 and 2 year old. Downtown was NOT the place to go last year. Thank you!
