50 top 4th of July destinations according to Priceline based on bookings


Priceline.com released its annual survey of the 50 most-popular destinations for the upcoming Independence Day weekend. Here is their survey. This year, Chicago’s Millennium Park replaces last year’s winner, New Orleans, as the most popular July 4th destination among Priceline customers.

The survey is based on more than 30,000 hotel room booking requests made by customers using priceline.com’s Name Your Own Price® hotel reservation service. Because the survey is based on credit card-backed booking requests, and not on consumer preference polls or votes, priceline.com believes the annual survey is one of the more accurate predictors of July 4th travel trends.

In New York City, July 4th visitors can look forward to Macy’s famous fireworks display. Chicago is hosting its Taste of Chicago festival, along with three fireworks displays on the North Side, South Side and at Navy Pier. Boston has the 6-day long Harborfest celebration with fireworks, the Boston Pops and Toby Keith. And Washington, DC, will have the Smithsonian Folklife Festival, a concert on the West Lawn of the Capitol with Reba McEntire and David Archuleta, an Independence Day parade and fireworks on the National Mall.
