Washington (CNN) President Donald Trump has laid tentative plans to upend the traditional Fourth of July celebrations in Washington, moving the fireworks show from the National Mall and perhaps including an address from the President himself, The Washington Post reported Friday.

The fireworks display on the Mall has been a time-honored nonpartisan tradition for nearly half a century, and Trump's new vision for Independence Day has caused a stir among city officials and lawmakers, the Post reports.

In February, Trump took to Twitter to tell Americans to "HOLD THE DATE!" for his July Fourth plans: "Major fireworks display, entertainment and an address by your favorite President, me!"

involve moving the fireworks show closer to the Potomac River and away from the National Mall and adding a second stage for entertainment, as well as an address from the President, according to the Post. Since his initial announcement, Trump and his new interior secretary, David Bernhardt -- who Trump tasked with the job three months ago -- have been finalizing plans for the new celebration, to be titled "A Salute to America." The plansinvolve moving the fireworks show closer to the Potomac River and away from the National Mall and adding a second stage for entertainment, as well as an address from the President, according to the Post.

A major Fourth of July parade already takes place in the nation's capital each year. America's National Independence Day Parade goes through the heart of downtown Washington and consists "of invited bands, fife and drum corps, floats, military and specialty units, giant balloons, equestrian, drill teams, VIP's, national dignitaries and celebrity participants," according to the parade's website . The DC celebration has been broadcast on television since 1947, and it has included a free concert since 1981 on the lawn of the Capitol.
