The National Mall may have the fireworks, but Downtown D.C. has the party. Just a short walk away, you’ll find festive bar crawls, rooftop viewing parties, and a dog-friendly social. Downtown has everything you need to keep the Independence celebrations going before and after the big fireworks shows. Skip the crowds and discover a vibrant lineup of events where you can sip, dance, and toast to freedom in style. This Fourth of July, let Downtown D.C. be your basecamp for birthday fun. History happens on the Mall but the party’s right here.
