Macy’s Fourth of July Fireworks

Time to hoist Old Glory, get the hot dogs on the barbecue and look to the skies. Macy’s once again generously blows a million dollars into the skies, in the fireworks display to top all others. This July fourth, instead of making New Yorkers crowd onto the East River waterfront either in midtown or around the Brooklyn Bridge, the fireworks will be launched from both sites – and a few in between. You could choose to mark the day with the national pastime instead, heading up to Yankee Stadium as the World Champion Yanks take on the highly rated Baltimore Orioles, but nothing beats seeing New York’s skyline lit up by Macy’s incandescent independence celebration.
