About this event
The penultimate Friday of the fireworks season. Shells go up over the beach at 21:45 and the long stretch of boardwalk around West 10th to West 15th Streets works as one enormous viewing gallery. Nothing is fenced and nothing is ticketed. The boardwalk fills well before sunset, so an early dinner doubles as a seat reservation.
Why we picked it
Free beachfront fireworks with no ticketed viewing area, a week before the season closes.
Free entry
Free to watch from the beach, boardwalk and amusement parks; no admission fee.
