New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced that the annual Independence Day (July 4) fireworks displaywill take place at Jones Beach State Park this year. 

In a statement, the governor announced that the Jovia Financial Credit Union Fireworks Spectacular will start at 9:30 p.m. (local time) and last for 25 minutes, featuring a display by Garden State Fireworks.

“To celebrate our nation’s 248th birthday, our State Parks’ Centennial, and the 95th birthday of Jones Beach, we hope you’ll join us to make memories under the fireworks on the Fourth of July,” Hochul said. “Our fireworks show over Jones Beach is a great summer tradition and I encourage New Yorkers to go see what this show and all our state parks have to offer.”

New York State Parks Commissioner Pro Tempore Randy Simons highlighted the significance of this year’s event. “This year is so special for us, 100 years as a park system. What better way to celebrate our centennial and Independence Day than with fireworks on the beach,” Simons said.

The event is sponsored by Jovia Financial Credit Union, with additional support from the Natural Heritage Trust, Foundation for Long Island State Parks Inc., Newsday, Connoisseur Media Long Island, and J & B Restaurant Partners.

“At Jovia, being a part of our community isn’t just about living and working here on Long Island, it’s about making contributions and celebrating unity,” said Jovia Financial Credit Union’s chief marketing officer Renu Dalessandro. “It’s an honor to be the title sponsor of the Jovia Financial Credit Union Fireworks Spectacular at Jones Beach for the fourth consecutive year.”

Connoisseur Media COO David Bevins expressed pride in the event. “We know the show will illuminate the sky and hearts of everyone who sees it. We hope the simulcast of the show’s soundtrack on WALK 97.5 and KJOY 98.3 will continue to serve as a tradition to bring together families, friends, and neighbors in a shared experience of joy and celebration,” Bevins said.

The event will include a music simulcast on WALK 97.5 FM and KJOY 98.3 FM. There is no additional charge for the fireworks show; regular park admission is $10 per vehicle.
