The plane used as Air Force One will fly above the National Mall on the Fourth of July as a part of a military flyover during the day's festivities, which will include a speech from President Trump
The Department of Interior confirmed that Trump will give his "Salute to America" address on the National Mall this Fourth of July, an unusual move by the President. Trump and other presidents have previously held events at the White House to celebrate the nation's birthday, but typically have not been present at the traditional large celebrations on the Mall.
Secretary of the Interior David Bernhardt said that the annual fireworks display, usually launched from behind the Lincoln Memorial, will be moved about a half mile south to West Potomac Park. He said the World War II Memorial and the area around the Reflecting Pool, which are usually closed off, will be open to the public.
