We’re sure we’ll soon get more details about all the Fourth of July treats we’ll see in the parks and at the resorts. We’ve also got details on the Fourth of July fireworks at Magic Kingdom. We even recently got confirmation that a fireworks show would return to EPCOT — and now we think we just saw testing for that show!

Every night, EPCOT has been performing EPCOT Forever with is nightly fireworks show. However, on the Fourth of July, that show’s finale will include of “The Heartbeat of Freedom,” which is a Fourth of July fireworks spectacle.

Last night, though, EPCOT was testing some fireworks — could this be in preparation for the 4th of July fireworks? We think MAYBE.
