Best America fireworks celebration on the 4th of July

America best firework

Few celebrations are as tradition-heavy as Boston’s Fourth, which began in 1974 in anticipation of the Bicentennial. Some 20 city, state, and federal agencies collaborate on the planning, and six—including the U.S. Coast Guard and the Cambridge police and fire departments—have boats in the Charles River, to oversee the four barges as they launch the 21-minute extravaganza.

Take a seat on Independence Day and crane your neck for America’s most spectacular fireworks displays.

Most big cities will mark the traditional date, July 4th, with landmark fireworks shows and parades, but many smaller towns are holding events before or after the actual date, with the weekend of July 6-7th lining up as a favorite.The bottom line: Independence Day 2012 offers a prime excuse to party all week long.  Where should you go to see the biggest, boldest, most spectacular celebrations of our nation’s 236th birthda

New York Celebration

We asked a couple of people who know how to set the sky on fire – fireworks experts – for advice. “New York City tops the list,” says Julie Heckman, executive director of the American Pyrotechnics Association, the trade association of the U.S. fireworks industry.

Where to View: The Boston Pops kicks the night off with a rousing concert at 8:30 p.m., but oddly enough, you can’t see the fireworks at all from the best concert seats. Thanks to 30 sound towers, though, every one of the 400,000 to 600,000 spectators—watching from both the Cambridge and Boston sides of the river on blankets, from the Longfellow Bridge, and from some 500 to 1,000 boats on the river—can have their concert and watch the fireworks too.

The Fourth of July is one celebration we can depend on each and every summer.

Some of the country’s major cities put on the most incredible fireworks displays possible on the 4^th of July; most of them far better than what you’ll find on New Years Eve! Grab a blanket or chair, load the family into the car, and make yourself comfortable at your perfect viewing point. These fireworks displays are destined to leave you calling for more.
