The fireworks used to begin shortly after the end of the Macy's 4th of July fireworks on the East River, which was generally a bit before 10 pm.

Best Viewing Locations from Staten Island.

10. Viewing Macy's July 4th Fireworks 2024 from Staten Island NYC
Macy's July 4th Fireworks 2024 along the Hudson River Provides Remote Viewing from Northern Staten Island
Description. The Macy's 4th of July fireworks will be shown along the Hudson River this year, for the first time since 2013. At that time Macy's had presented the fireworks display on the Hudson from 2008 - 2013, before moving back to the East River in 2014, where they've been shown until this year [2024]. The Grucci Brothers will be doing the Macy's 4th of July fireworks in NYC again, which they've been doing for decades, and possibly since the inception of the event in 1976.
Best Viewing Locations For Macy's 4th of July Fireworks Staten Island 2024
Generally Time / Location Prep. The fireworks are expected to begin about 9.25 - 9.35 pm.
To view the Macy's fireworks from Manhattan - see map at right. The distance from the northern tip of Staten Island to the Macy's July 4th fireworks launch is between 7 and 9 miles, so it's quite far away, but it's generally unobstructed as it is over water.
Folks planning to view them from the west side of Manhattan will need time to get into position no later than sometime in the afternoon. It's also recommended that viewers forego the lawn chairs and other extra baggage to the extent they can, especially the later they move into position, as this will encumber getting past the NYPD lines and through the crowd. For more details on viewing the fireworks in Manhattan, use the Manhattan Fireworks link at the bottom of this page.

11. Tottenville Independence Day Celebrations at the Conference House Staten Island 2024
