Since the US founding fathers signed the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, the Fourth of July has been observed as Independence Day in the United States. Americans observe the day with parades, fireworks, concerts, and other festive events.

Americans in the US commemorate the country's history by:

Fife-and-drum bands march in historical and contemporary clothes; some even dress as "Uncle Sam," a folk hero who represents the United States.

The lengthy Fourth of July weekend may be used by families as a time to relax and enjoy the beach.
