The biggest celebration in the area was the Macy's Fourth of July Fireworks show. The 25-minute display lit up the sky over the East River, and with the Brooklyn Bridge as the backdrop, it was truly a spectacular sight witnessed by hundreds of thousands of spectators.

The Macy's 4th of July Fireworks show is tentatively scheduled for 9:25 p.m., according to NYC311, an official website for NYC. The Macy's 4th of July Fireworks special will air from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. on NBC and will stream live on Peacock. If you miss the show, you have another chance to watch it with an encore presentation at 10 p.m. on NBC.
