From sea to shining sea, Americans are celebrating the nation’s 250th birthday with fireworks, flyovers, parades, concerts, and patriotic displays as communities across the country mark a quarter millennium since the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

In New York, Macy’s will host 4th of July Fireworks featuring a new Brooklyn Bridge laser show. The celebrations also included a maritime ship show, dubbed Sail4th 250, in the harbor and a flyover by the Blue Angels. Saturday morning, Vice President JD Vance delivered a patriotic address aboard the deck of the USS Kearsarge in New York Harbor.
