Fireworks Return to the Brooklyn Bridge

By Y.M. Lowy

If you are planning to stay in the city this summer, you are in for a treat. This year’s Fourth of July fireworks are heading back to the East River, right off Williamsburg, Mayor Eric Adams announced.

The New York City tradition will light up the skyline once again from floating platforms near the Brooklyn Bridge.

After a one-year move to the Hudson River, the fireworks return to their familiar spot as the city also marks 400 years since its founding. The fireworks will launch from the Brooklyn Bridge and boats on the river, setting up a dramatic show that’ll be visible from parts of Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens.
