Light your sparklers: it's time to celebrate the Fourth of July! Each year, we gather with friends and family to commemorate the day our country declared independence in 1776. From backyard barbecues to local parades, there are so many festive activities to enjoy on the Fourth of July. Setting off fireworks is one beloved Fourth of July holiday tradition, and the Macy's 4th of July fireworks show is arguably one of the most famous firework displays in the country.
Where to watch the Macy's 4th of July fireworks in NYC If you're in New York City for the Fourth of July, don't miss the chance to see the Macy's fireworks display in person along the Hudson River.
