The Macy’s 4th of July fireworks show is making it to Spanish-language television, and Telemundo is spearheading the broadcast. Live from New York City, the programming will include star-studded performances, special guest appearances, and of course a spectacle of fireworks across the NYC skyline.
The special programming will be hosted by Carlos Adyan and Jessica Carrillo. Adyan is a Puerto Rican host for En Casa con Telemundo, and Carrillo is a presenter for Al Rojo Vivo. She was also a judge in the 2024 Miss Universe Pageant.
The Celebración de 4 de julio will include special appearances by Lenny Kravitz, Ariana DeBose, Keke Palmer, Jonas Brothers, and Trisha Yearwood, among other special guests.
The 49th Annual Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks is the country’s largest fireworks display, with fireworks arranged in various hues and patterns that reach 1,000 feet high above the East River. The fireworks show will fire from the Brooklyn Bridge and four barges positioned on the lower East River. The dazzling show will launch against a musical score produced by Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson and James Pouser, along with a special performance by Ariana DeBose.
While the show will be available for nationwide broadcast, locals can watch the show publicly across several locations. NYC has also announced a giveaway of 100,000 free tickets in designated areas of Brooklyn Bridge Park, including areas in the Brooklyn and Manhattan side of the bridge.
Telemundo’s Celebración de 4 de julio will be broadcast live on July 4 at 9 PM/8 CST.
