Celebrate Independence Day in the Nation’s Capital from a Vantage Point Overlooking The White House, at The Hay-Adams
This July 4th, guests at The Hay-Adams, located at 800 16th Street, NW in Washington, DC, can experience the excitement of the festivities far above the bustling crowds attending the Capitol Fourth fireworks on the National Mall. With unrivaled views of the White House and the National Mall beyond, The Hay-Adams’ Top of the Hay is the venue of choice to soak in the views and watch the country’s best fireworks display.

From this perfect perch, patrons gather to view the Capitol Fourth's spectacular fireworks display, while enjoying a full open bar, butler passed cocktails, and a candy bar featuring Pastry Chef Josh Short’s house-made delights, including ice creams and candies, ideal for a summer night.
