Best 4th Of July Ever: Freedom Fest At Fairmont Scottsdale Princess

Saluting America's heroes, the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess will host an air show with the Falcon Warbirds on July 4, where 30 vintage military aircraft from World War II, Korea and Vietnam will fly over the resort, piloted by retired veterans. The air show concludes with a military parachutist from the All Veterans Parachute Team soaring through the skies and landing with American and military flags. Miniature flags will be provided to guests on the ground to cheer on the crews. At the Trailblazers Kids Club, veterans will meet with kid campers.

Revelers can dance and celebrate with live music under the stars on the Princess Lagoon Lawn at the Freedom Fest concerts. A different band is featured each evening, July 2-4, including '80s music from the Spazmatics, a Bruno Mars tribute band Uptown Funk and a Michael Jackson tribute band, MJ Live, with pre-shows by Grammy award-winning Secret Agent 23 Skidoo. Complete with a patriotic introduction and fireworks intermission, the concerts are complimentary for overnight guests or those dining in La Hacienda, Bourbon Steak, Toro Latin Restaurant & Rum Bar or Ironwood American Kitchen.     

Celebrating America, poolside is also the place to be. Sunset Beach is the resort's newest and largest pool with 830 tons of cool, sugar white sand, glamorous cabanas, swimming mermaids and sudsy new foam parties at the splash pad. At the Sonoran Splash pool complex, families can have a ball racing down 200-foot waterslides, while the Fun Team is on deck leading games with music from DJ Splash. Red, white and blue frozen drinks and watermelon eating contests round-out the fun. At night, the Sonoran Splash pool transforms into the H2/Glow Party, with fog, lasers and LED hula hoopers.
