East River by the Brooklyn Bridge, New York
Macy’s is gearing up for its annual July 4th fireworks. On Monday, July 4, 2016, fireworks will light up the sky over the East River, and the show promises to be bigger than ever as it celebrates its 40th anniversary. Spectators should be able to catch the show from many neighborhoods in downtown Manhattan as well as parts of Brooklyn and Queens.
Fireworks will take to the sky along the East River near Midtown and the South Street Seaport. More than 56,000 are scheduled to burst forth at a rate of 2,200 per minute and all will be synchronized to a soundtrack of patriotic standards. New-in-2016 effects will include pyro-writing, where fireworks will spell out U-S-A.
