The largest Fourth of July celebration outside the United States is celebrated in Rebild Bakker, Denmark. Rebild is located in Northern Jutland, the main peninsula of Denmark. Each year, 10,000-15,000 people gather to celebrate the American Independance Day.
The founder was a Danish-American, Max Henius, who emigrated to the United States in 1881 and settled in Chicago. He never forgot Denmark and he donated the Hills at Rebild to be used as a place for Danish American relations.
During this 90 years the celebrations have been attended by many known Americans including former presidents.Raymon Burr, Richard Nixon, Hubert H Humphrey, Danny Kaye, Walther Cronkite, Victor Borge, Walter Shirra, Walt Disney are a few of the keynote speakers from the last 40 years.
