就在唐纳德·特朗普总统宣布华盛顿特区将举办“史上规模最大烟火秀”的近两个月后，吉尼斯世界纪录本周正式确认了这一纪录。
“史上最大规模烟火秀共燃放840537枚烟花，由Freedom 250和Pyrotecnico公司（均为美国企业）于2026年7月4日在美国华盛顿特区由Event Strategies Inc.组织的活动中完成，”该机构在其网站上写道。
尽管遭遇天气延误，导致狂欢者从国家广场疏散，但仍有数十万人到场观看了上月午夜前开始的华盛顿特区烟火秀。

唐纳德·特朗普总统在演讲中估算，原本预计35万人的华盛顿特区国家广场观众人数因各种因素缩减至15万人，这场创纪录的烟火秀在华盛顿纪念场上空燃放，作为7月4日Freedom 250庆祝活动的一部分。（汤姆·威廉姆斯/CQ-罗尔呼叫公司 摄）
作为美国建国250周年“致敬美国”庆祝活动的一部分，总统此前还发表了简短演讲。
烟火秀正式开始后，持续了约40分钟。
内政部长道格·伯根在6月解释称，由于本次烟火秀规模空前，将从多个场地燃放。
“通常烟火秀都是沿着这里燃放的，”他指着林肯纪念堂倒影池对《华盛顿记者报》说道。
“但今年，由于活动规模和体量太大，将有多达数十个燃放点，包括驳船，”他解释道。

白宫数月前发起了公私合作项目Freedom 250，总统担任该倡议的主席。
据《华盛顿邮报》报道，此前最大规模烟火秀的纪录保持者是2016年一个大型基督教堂的跨年烟火秀，共燃放810904枚烟花。
“7月4日，美国齐聚一堂，庆祝我们国家的250岁生日，史上规模最大的烟火秀——超过85万枚烟花点亮了国家广场、波托马克河及周边数英里的夜空，这场壮观的表演持续了40分钟，”Freedom 250发言人丹妮尔·阿尔瓦雷斯在给福克斯新闻数字频道的一份声明中说道。

Nearly two months after President Doanld Trump proclaimed Washington, D.C. would launch the “LARGEST FIREWORKS SHOW IN HISTORY,” Guinness World Records confirmed it this week.
“The largest firework display consists of 840,537 fireworks, and was achieved by Freedom 250 and Pyrotecnico, Inc (both USA) at an event organized by Event Strategies Inc in Washington D.C., USA, on 4 July 2026,” the organization wrote on its website.
Despite weather delays that involved revelers being evacuated from the National Mall, hundreds of thousands of people still watched the Washington, D.C., fireworks that began just before midnight last month.

President Donald Trump estimated in his speech that a crowd of 350,000 was cut to 150,000 on the Washington, D.C., National Mall for the record-setting fireworks display over the Washington Monument as part of the Freedom 250 celebration on July 4.(Tom Williams/CQ-Roll Call, Inc)
The president also gave an abbreviated speech beforehand as part of the “Salute to America” celebration for the 250th anniversary of the country.
Once it got underway, the show lasted for about 40 minutes.
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum explained in June that the fireworks would be launched from several sites because of its immense scale.
“Normally the fireworks are set off right along here,” he told the Washington Reporter of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.
“This year, because of the size and scale of the thing, there are so many locations where the fireworks are going to be going off, including barges,” he explained.

The White House launched Freedom 250 as a public-private partnership months ago and the president serves as chair of the initiative.
The previous record holder for largest fireworks celebration was a megachurch’s 2016 New Year’s Eve show, which featured 810,904 fireworks, according to The Washington Post.
“On July 4th, America came together to celebrate our nation’s 250th birthday with the largest fireworks display in history — over 850,000 fireworks lighting up the National Mall and the Potomac River, and miles around in a 40-minute spectacular,” Freedom 250 spokesperson Danielle Alvarez shared in a statement with Fox News Digital.

Alvarez added, “This historic display shattered the previous global benchmark and stands as a powerful symbol of unity, resilience, and pride as we begin our nation’s next 250 years. Freedom 250 is honored to have brought this moment to millions of Americans, and we thank everyone who made it possible.”

“No other president in history could have accomplished the incredible feat that President Trump did at our Nation’s historic 250th birthday celebration, which included an incredible air show, a record-breaking fireworks display, and an inspiring speech delivered before hundreds of thousands of American patriots,” the White House said in a statement, according to the Post.
The White House did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
