More specifically U.S.A.

The point of this thread is what and how do they celebrate it.

How much have you had to drink? I think you’re confusing the 4th of July with New Years, my friend. Go to bed.

Wholesome.

You need to think before you run your mouth, less people think your ignorant.

localized events for expats is not the same as other countries celebrating. I have certainly never seen the worldwide fireworks display like he OP describes any time other than New Year’s Eve. This is ludicrous.

people celebrating Cinco de Mayo in places other than Mexico?

like maybe they have a hotdog snd American food like some people drink margaritas and eat some tacos on May 5?

More like Cinco de Quatro

While not exactly July 4th but Armenia celebrates their Constitution Day on July 5th.

I was there last year and they had a big parade from Republic Square (city center in the capital Yerevan) up Northern Avenue towards the Oprea House. Then afterwards that night, they had fireworks.

I asked the locals and they said they do this yearly since 1995 when their Constitution was first signed.

And my mother was born there, so I have many relatives, work associates, and friends there. They snicker at the 4th.

Is not the same as celebrating

Lol

American dollars in select locations.

Sore losers:)

you ask a question and then apparently don't want to hear the answer:

No, its celebrated all over the world. wgenesis123 : 6/22/2018 9:01 pm : link : reply The point of this thread is what and how do they celebrate it.

Most places celebrate it ceremonially in American bars or as Summer festivals, especially in ex-pat strong communities.

Germany, especially around the military bases has events. But it isn't widespread, nor is it considered a holiday.

Hong Kong has a celebration, but it isn't a 4th of July centric focus - it is a Dragon Boat festival that will include fireworks.

Think of it like Cinco de Mayo in the US. Some places use it as a way to drive bar traffic, but most places don't celebrate it at all.

There is a 2 for 1 on beer at the Hiltons near the Ford Plant just down the road from the Naval Base in Portsmouth.

And you haven't lived until you are collected by the MPs when you celebrate past curfew near Ramstein on the 4th.

Guam, Diego Garcia. All over the world.

They watch the fireworks and the fires all the time.
