4th of July Celebration at Universal Studios Hollywood

The storied movie studio and theme park fires off a Fourth of July pyro extravaganza with fireworks synchronized to both Universal-themed music and patriotic standards. Though we’re still awaiting all of the details for 2023, the past few years have added other holiday touches along the way, including themed décor and a fife and drum band. You’ll be able to view the 9pm fireworks from two locations, most likely the Universal Plaza in the upper lot as well as near the Transformers ride on the lower lot (if you were thinking of getting away with watching from CityWalk, you should expect limited to no visibility from the shopping district).
