4th of July Fireworks in Westchester 2024
Summer has officially begun, and July is practically here, so we’re ready to start our 4th of July plans! In Westchester, we love having family barbecues, heading to the local pools and beaches, or spending a day at the park with the entire family on the 4th. But fireworks are a universal way to close out any 4th of July. This year’s fireworks will be happening throughout Westchester. Below is our list of fireworks happening throughout the county this year.
