4th of July in New York City


The 4th of July is the most American holiday and is an amazing event in America's most iconic city - New York City. The home of the Statue of Liberty has a distinct connection to America and it's patriotism, forged by the founding fathers and endured by those on September 11th, 2001. Whether it's spending the day in Central Park, Times Square or watching the night skyline bright with 4th of July fireworks, NYC delivers a patriotic experience second to none.

Where are the fireworks? The Macy's 4th of July Fireworks Spectacular is held on July 4th with fireworks fired from barges positioned on the East River and can be viewed from any unobstructed view of the East River in Manhattan, Queens and Brooklyn. The show is a dazzling world-class display of professionally choreographed pyrotechnics and features a musical score made up of both classic and patriotic favorites performed by award winning artists.
