Macy’s July 4th Fireworks Display in New York City

July-fourth

 

Happy 4th of July! It’s here again. And there are of course, some really special things to do in New York City with the kids! But we all know that the fireworks display is the cat’s meow! This year, the 38th Annual Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks makes its return to the East River and lights up the night from one of New York’s most famous landmarks—the Brooklyn Bridge! Here is the official site.

They will be held on the East River between the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges, making Dumbo, Vinegar Hill, Brooklyn Heights, Williamsburg and Greenpoint the perfect spots to throw down a picnic blanket. Families may want to avoid South Street Seaport though (we hear Piers 15–17 will be closed).

Scroll down for Macy’s current viewing location recommendations but make sure you check the website again tomorrow for potential changes.
