Looking at the sky is the ideal way to witness fireworks. Still, if you can’t experience them in person, there’s no need to fret. It’s 2025, and everything is available for livestreaming. You can relish the fireworks from your sofa without setting aside your hot dog.

For streaming fireworks on July 4, the Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks special stands out as your top pick. It broadcasts from 8 p.m. ET to 10 p.m. ET. You can watch it on Peacock, NBC’s streaming platform, or tune in to your local NBC channel.

Broadway’s Ariana DeBose will be the host of the NBC event, showcasing musical talents such as Keke Palmer, Eric Church, Ava Max, the Jonas Brothers, Trisha Yearwood, and Lenny Kravitz.

If you don’t have access to NBC or Peacock, you can watch PBS’s fireworks presentation for free on YouTube. The program begins at 8 p.m. ET and is presented by Alfonso Ribeiro, famed for his role as Carlton on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

This July 4, enjoy fireworks for free from the comfort of your living room.
