The 1975–1976 United States bicentennial recorded 66,484 events and projects.
The total came from the final report of the American Revolution Bicentennial Administration. It counted 27,489 projects and 38,995 events held between March 1975 and December 31, 1976. The figures show how widely the anniversary was observed beyond official ceremonies in major cities.
The bicentennial program included parades, local festivals, historical reenactments, exhibitions, school activities, fireworks, commemorative objects, and traveling displays. The American Freedom Train and Operation Sail were among the nationally prominent projects.
The count also included activity outside the United States: 654 events and projects were held abroad. Because the total combines two categories, it is easy to confuse it with the number of events alone; the 66,484 figure is the combined total of events and projects.
