Thanks to a booming economy, solid employment, and growing consumer confidence, more Americans will binge on travel and barbecue this Fourth of July.

AAA estimates that a record 46.9 million Americans will travel 50 miles or more during the holiday weekend (Jul 3-8), up 5% from last year. Of them, 39.7 million will go on a road trip, 3.8 million will fly, and 3.5 million will travel by train and other modes (including buses and cruises).

Though road trip is expected to rise 5.1% over last year, motorists are expected to pay a higher gas price than last year but less than what they paid for Memorial Day this year. Gas prices peaked at $2.97 per gallon nationwide during the Memorial Day weekend and have since then lowered to a $2.87 per gallon national average. The prices are also well below the $3.60 average from Independence Day 2014.

Additionally, travelers taking to the skies will pay an average $171 for a round-trip flight on the top 40 domestic routes, per AAA’s Leisure Travel Index. This is the lowest Independence Day airfare in five years, and 9% lower than last year.

However, travelers’ wallets will feel the pinch when paying for car rentals, and most mid-range hotels. The average daily cost of a car rental is 2% higher than last year, while the average nightly rate at AAA Two Diamond hotels is 11% more at $147 and AAA Three Diamond hotels is 2% more at $187 (read: Will Consumer ETFs Lose Momentum on Trump Tariffs).

Apart from one of the busiest holidays, Independence Day also marks the beginning of the busiest half of the year for retailers. Many retailers are already flashing exciting deals for July Fourth and massive discounts are in the cards for the day. According to the National Retail Federation (NRF), 216 million Americans plan to celebrate Independence Day this year with total spending of $6.91 billion, down from 219 million last year. Though the number of consumers may be down due to the holiday falling in mid-week, it presents retailers with a great opportunity to boost sales. Spending per household nevertheless is estimated to grow 2.6% to $75.35 on food for cookouts and barbecues.

That said, this Fourth July will be a celebration of not only freedom, but also economic growth. Along with the spirits of Americans, this Independence Day should lift revenues and profits in various corners. Industries like transportation, lodging, hotel, restaurants, food and retail will benefit the most. Investors seeking to tap the fanfare could ride on these industries through the following ETFs (read: Top-Ranked Sector ETFs to Buy for Q3).
