4th of July Fireworks at Jones Beach
Head to Jones Beach with a blanket or chair for the July 4th Fireworks Spectacular. The show begins at 9:30pm and lasts 30 minutes, but plan to arrive early to snag your parking spot and a good vantage point.
Listen to the WALK 97.5 FM and KJOY-98.3 FM simulcast music during the fireworks presentation. There is no charge for the show, but plan to pay $10 per car for parking, which gets more difficult the later you arrive.
Fireworks inspired by Barbie, Beyoncé, and Taylor Swift will highlight a 25-minute pyrotechnics display that will paint the night sky with whimsical candy-colored patterns and floral designs this Fourth of July at Jones Beach.
NEW for 2025: comprised of 5,000 shells launched from a barge 2,000 feet off-shore—are “pink and aqua” effects dancing across the sky to Dua Lipa’s “Dance The Night” from the Barbie movie, says Chris Santore, production manager and choreographer for New Jersey-based Garden State Fireworks.
