The fireworks celebration took place on the Hudson River for the 3rd consecutive year, moving from the East River on the East Side of Manhattan. The fireworks show, which was viewed by millions of spectators along the West Side of Manhattan and the from many sites along the Hudson River in New Jersey, lit the sky with colorful bursts launched from six barges located on the river. The annual event celebrates the American Independence Day holiday which marks the day of the adoption of the US Declaration of independence in 1776.
