The Shining Fans Pay Tribute to 100th Anniversary of Iconic Movie Moment
Though Stephen King's novel The Shining and Stanley Kubrick's movie are far from being 100 years [...]
We're watching The Shining
It's the 100th anniversary of this Fourth of July party at the Overlook, so we're watching The Shining. pic.twitter.com/r1qXQHsKnD

You've always been the partyman here
Happy Fourth from the Timberline Trail, a 40-mile circle of Mt. Hood. Starting exactly 100 years from the July Fourth Ball at the Overlook Hotel from The Shining, partly filmed here. pic.twitter.com/DEZS38pgNY

And here's the ACTUAL photo!
As others have noted, not only is today the Fourth of July, but also the 100th anniversary of the fictional Overlook Hotel July 4th Ball, captured in the closing scenes of Stanley Kubrick's "The Shining", and seen here as part of the Design Museum's Kubrick exhibition in 2019. pic.twitter.com/OAeJ1gyj9I

Room 237 is now streaming
In the book it was a New Year's Eve party.
I subscribe to the theory that Kubrick also made the Shining about the Overlook Hotel/America being built on Native lands and lives, and never even pointing it out.
