who will be there.

30Minute private fireworks
✦
A Private Fireworks Sky
A 30-minute pyrotechnic symphony choreographed to a live orchestra — designed exclusively for our 250 guests, launched over the water at midnight.
✧
The 1776 Tasting Menu
Twelve courses tracing 250 years of American cuisine, from colonial hearth to modern fire — composed by a James Beard Award–winning chef.
✦
Reserve Cellar & Open Bar
American reserve wines, rare bourbons poured from the barrel, and a champagne toast at the stroke of the 250th — all evening, all inclusive.
✧
Live Orchestra & Headliner
A 40-piece orchestra scores the night, followed by a surprise headline performance announced only to ticket holders, one week before.
✦
The Founders’ Rooftop
An unobstructed skyline terrace reserved for guests — cigar lounge, raw bar, and the best view of the fireworks in the nation.
✧
A Piece of History
Every guest departs with a numbered Semiquincentennial keepsake — one of 250, minted for this night and never produced again.
The Evening
Six hours, scored like a symphony.
6:00 PM
Arrival & The Gold Carpet
Champagne reception on the waterfront promenade. A string quartet, a saber toast, and your numbered ticket exchanged for a minted credential.
7:30 PM
The 1776 Tasting Begins
Twelve courses, 250 years. Each course arrives with a story — the dish, the decade, the America it came from.
9:45 PM
Words for the 250th
A short address from a surprise guest of honor, followed by the raising of the flag that will fly over the gala — sewn for this night.
10:30 PM
The Headliner
Announced to ticket holders one week out. Performed once, for 250 people, and never mentioned again.
11:55 PM
The Midnight Toast
As the clock turns on 250 years, champagne rises with the first shell of a 30-minute private fireworks symphony over the water.
12:30 AM
The Founders’ After-Hours
Rooftop cigar lounge, rare pours, and the skyline until close. What happens on the roof stays on the roof.
Questions
Asked, answered.
Anything else? The concierge answers within the hour, every hour of every
day between now and the Fourth.
At the White House in Washington, D.C. Precise arrival logistics, gate assignments, and security clearance details are disclosed to confirmed ticket holders 30 days before the event.
What is the dress code?
Black tie, strictly. Think midnight navy, black, and touches of gold — this is the most photographed night of the Semiquincentennial, and you will be in the photographs.
Are tickets refundable or transferable?
Tickets are non-transferable — each is issued in the guest’s legal name and matched to ID at arrival. Refunds are available in full until June 1, 2026; after that date, seats may be released to the waitlist at our discretion.
Can I purchase a table for a group?
Liberty and Founders Circle guests may reserve adjoining seats at checkout, subject to availability. For full tables of eight or more, contact the concierge — a limited number of group arrangements exist.
What happens if it rains?
The estate includes a glass pavilion built for exactly this question. The program, dinner, and fireworks proceed rain or shine — July 4, 2026 does not get a rain date.
Is the event really capped at 250 guests?
Yes. Two hundred fifty tickets, honoring 250 years — that number is the entire point. No standing room, no day-of releases, no exceptions for anyone who asks twice.
July 4, 2026
History only turns 250 once.
The 200th sold out before it was announced. The 250th already has a
waitlist. Be one of the 250 names on the manifest — or spend the next
century explaining why you weren’t.
