Howdy, folks! It’s me, Billy, and I’m here to share with y’all the best firework events to celebrate Independence Day. 🇺🇸

With the 4th of July just around the corner, it’s time to deck out our lawns with flags and bunting, fire up the grill, and set our eyes to the skies for some spectacular firework displays. 💥

So, here are some of the best firework events to help you celebrate America’s birthday in style. 🎉

Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks, New York City

First up, we have Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks spectacle in the city that never sleeps, New York City. This firework show is the largest in the country, and it will light up the night sky above the East River.

You can enjoy the show from any great viewing spot along the river. However, some of the best spots include the Brooklyn Bridge Park, Brooklyn Heights Promenade, and the South Street Seaport.

National Mall Firework Celebration, Washington D.C.

The National Mall is the heart of America’s heritage and a national symbol of patriotism. There is no better way to celebrate America’s birthday than by seeing the fireworks explode above the Washington Monument in the National Mall Firework Celebration.

For the best view, head to the National Mall early and snag a spot as close to the monument as possible. If you’re looking for a unique experience, viewing the display from the Potomac River is also an excellent option.
