The Macy's 4th of July Fireworks Spectacular will more than live up to its name - and you can watch the whole thing online.
The Macy's 4th of July Fireworks Spectacular is one of the most anticipated events every year on Independence Day. With over 56,000 pyrotechnic effects prepared for this year's fireworks show, it will truly be a dazzling experience in New York City.
"The 40th annual Macy's 4th of July Fireworks will illuminate the sky over New York City in an unparalleled display of color, shapes, light and sound, from five firing locations on the East River in midtown and within the Seaport district," says NBC. "The 2016 celebration will include more than 56,000 pyrotechnic effects and feature the New York debut of pyro-writing, an explosive version of skywriting created using fireworks that will spell out 'USA' in the night sky. The 25 minute synchronized display will be choreographed to a soaring and patriotic score performed by the United States Air Force Band and the one-and-only Jennifer Holliday."
There will also be multiple musical performances at the event, including Pitbull, Kenny Chesney, 5 Seconds of Summer, Sara Bareilles, DNCE, Meghan Trainor and the Radio City Rockettes.
While the Macy's 4th of July Fireworks Spectacular is obviously viewable from various locations in New York City, the event will also be broadcast on television. The Macy's 4th of July Fireworks Spectacular will air tonight at 8 p.m. ET/PT on NBC and last until 10 p.m. At this point, the broadcast will be repeated.
However, if you are not able to watch the fireworks display on television, you still have an option! According to NBC's New York affiliate, the network is providing a free live stream on its website right here, and you won't need cable or satellite subscription information.
