Looking for the best way to hear to good music on the 4th of July? Look no further than NBC’s Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks Spectacular. Hosted by Terry Crews, the live event, taking place on the 4th, will feature two hours of performances from several talented artists.
This year’s show marks 50 years of Macy’s fireworks shows, and plans to celebrate 250 years of American independence. Although the location from which fireworks are launched has alternated over the years, the first-ever Macy’s fireworks show took place in 1976 on the New York Harbor.
This year’s display will be launched from the Brooklyn Bridge and from barges on the Lower East and Hudson Rivers.
Performers slated for Saturday’s show include Post Malone, Noah Kahan, Salt-N-Pepa, Bebe Rhexa, Shaboozey and Blake Shelton. The show will also feature a performance by The Voice Season 29 winner, Alexia Jayy, during the fireworks display.
Those watching can expect to see a massive presentation of 85,000-shell fireworks, spanning nearly half an hour during Jayy’s performance.
