HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!
One of the best places to watch the July 4th fireworks in Philly is at the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. This is the site of the annual Wawa Welcome America festival, which features a spectacular fireworks display over the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
The Benjamin Franklin Parkway offers plenty of space for crowds to gather and watch the show, and the view of the fireworks over the museum is truly breathtaking. There are also food trucks, vendors, and live music performances throughout the day leading up to the fireworks.
Another great spot to watch the July 4th fireworks in Philly is at Penn's Landing. This waterfront park hosts a variety of events throughout the year, including the annual July 4th fireworks display. There are plenty of spots to watch the show, including the Great Plaza and the Delaware River waterfront.
Other popular spots to watch the fireworks include the South Street Bridge, which offers great views of the city skyline, and Belmont Plateau, which is a scenic overlook in Fairmount Park that offers panoramic views of the city.
No matter where you choose to watch the fireworks, be sure to arrive early, bring snacks and drinks, and be prepared for crowds. And remember to have fun and celebrate the holiday!
