Banks and post offices will be closed on Thursday, July 4 in observance of Independence Day, however most major restaurant, grocery and retail store chains will remain open on the holiday.
Companies such as Walmart, Starbucks, Chick-fil-A and Target, among many others, will keep their doors open on the federal holiday this year. The stock market, however, will also be closed on Thursday.
The origins of the Fourth of July date back to when Philadelphians marked the first anniversary of American independence with a "spontaneous celebration," which is described in a letter by John Adams to his daughter, Abigail, according to the Library of Congress.
However, the annual observation of the holiday only became a regular occurrence after the War of 1812, where events such as groundbreaking ceremonies for the Erie Canal and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad were scheduled to coincide with Fourth of July festivities. Congress passed a law making Independence Day a federal holiday on June 28, 1870.
Here is what you need to know about what is open and closed on the Fourth of July this year.
