New Year’s Eve Fireworks on the Philly Waterfront
As the grand finale of Philadelphia’s holiday season, ring in 2026 with the biggest and brightest fireworks show in the area. On New Year’s Eve, the vibrant show runs at 6 pm and again at 12 am, set to an exhilarating soundtrack to start the New Year unforgettably.
Speaking of the RiverRink, enjoy fun for the whole family with Parties on Ice, a ticketed event with both an ice skating and spectator option, where you can enjoy interactive live entertainment, delicious food, and a ride on the ferris wheel, all under the beautiful New Year’s Eve Fireworks!
The New Year’s Eve Fireworks on the Waterfront can be viewed for free along the Waterfront at Race Street Pier, Spruce Street Harbor Park, Pier 68, and Washington Avenue Pier, as well as the Moshulu, Keating’s Rope & Anchor, the Spirit of Philadelphia, Independence Seaport Museum, Fringe Arts, Dave & Busters, and Rivers Casino.
