Macy’s 49th annual July 4 celebration returns to its regularly scheduled programming this year, heading back to the East River after last year’s fireworks ignited over the Hudson for the first time in more than a decade.

Millions of spectators will flock to designated viewing spots on Manhattan’s East Side and the Brooklyn waterfront to watch the pyrotechnics, which will kick off at 8 p.m. on Friday. Musical performances will accompany the show.

Other fireworks shows and festivities will take place on Coney Island and Long Island and in Jersey City and Westchester County.

Where can I watch?

The Macy’s fireworks display will launch from four barges stationed in the East River between Pier 17 and the Downtown Manhattan Heliport in the Financial District.

On Monday, the city announced that it would give away 100,000 free tickets to see the fireworks from designated public viewing spots in Brooklyn Bridge Park and on sections of Pier 16 and Pier 17 at the South Street Seaport in Manhattan.

Registration for the ticket giveaway began on Tuesday morning. By Wednesday, there were no more slots available.
