Where to watch 4th of July fireworks in Brooklyn
The Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks display, touted as the largest celebration in the nation, has become a staple of observing Independence Day in New York City. And luckily for Brooklynites, this year’s show will be returning to the Brooklyn Bridge area for the first time since 2014.
More than 70,000 shells in 28 different colors will be shot off from four barges parked just south of the Brooklyn Bridge, as well as from more than 100 locations on the bridge itself, including the roadway and towers.
Susan Tercero, executive producer for the show, called it an “unprecedented barrage of color, light, sounds and shapes that will delight millions.”
