VALDOSTA, Ga. – Wild Adventures Theme Park will be showcasing a sky full of red, white and blue on July 4 and 5 with the Celebrate America Fireworks Spectacular. This display will cap off a day full of Celebrate America Festival activities.
The Celebrate America Fireworks Spectacular will be a patriotic presentation of dazzling fireworks set to music. It is set to start at 9 p.m. on both nights.
"Our Celebrate America Fireworks Spectacular is the biggest in the region, and no matter where you are in the park, you'll have an excellent view," said Asher Raymond, public relations specialist. "But the best viewing area is around the lake at the all-new Water's Edge."
Water’s Edge is the park’s newly opened area designed to feel like a festive, tropical village by the water. It features three new rides: the soaring Wing Swinger, the spinning Boat Parade, and the 68-foot-tall Horizon Wheel, offering sweeping views of the park. The area also includes shaded comfort zones, vibrant décor, a new reptile house and a brand-new stage for live entertainment.
Before the fireworks, Celebrate America Festival has other fun activities to partake in. On July 4 through 6, the Surfside Stage in Splash Island will have family-friendly fun with popsicle eating competitions at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. as well as a watermelon eating contest at 2 p.m. Guests can also have an all-American cookout at Wild Adventures with a Patriotic Picnic on July 4 through 6 from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m., with favorites like hamburgers, hot dogs and baked beans.
The Celebrate America Fireworks Spectacular is included with park admission. In celebration of the event, Wild Adventures has extended the Celebrate America Sale through 29 with single-day admission tickets available for $35.
“The Celebrate America Festival is one of our biggest events of the year, and we want to make it easy for families to come out and enjoy it,” Raymond said. “With a $35 ticket and the return of the Globetrotters, it’s the perfect time to visit.”
In honor of those who serve, Wild Adventures will be offering any active, retired, disabled and honorably discharged veterans free admission June 21 through July 6. Valid military ID or DD Form 214 is required.
Season Passes are also available and offer unlimited visits during the Celebrate America Festival along with access to Great Pumpkin LumiNights and Wild Adventures Christmas later in the year.
