Jonas Brothers, Eric Church, Keke Palmer & More Performers Announced for ‘Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks’ Special

NBC announced the musical lineup for the Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks special on Thursday (June 12), including Jonas Brothers, Eric Church, Lenny Kravitz and Keke Palmer.

According to a release, the patriotic holiday special, which naturally airs on July 4, will also include performances by Ava Max and Trisha Yearwood, as well as a musical score during the fireworks display produced by Questlove and James Poyser featuring a live vocal performance by Ariana DeBose, who will also serve as host of the two-hour event.

Billed as the nation’s “largest Independence Day celebration,” the telecast will continue the annual tradition of firing off dazzling pyrotechnics from New York City’s famous Brooklyn Bridge as well as four barges positioned on the East River.

“Year after year, this telecast continues to inspire and awe, lighting up the New York skyline — this time with a stunning fireworks display near the iconic Brooklyn Bridge,” said Jen Neal, NBCU Entertainment’s executive vice president of live events and specials, said in a statement. “It’s the kind of unforgettable national live event that brings us together as a country while showcasing the power and uniqueness of both our NBC and Peacock brands.”

Speaking of the network, the 49th annual Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks special will air on NBC at 8 p.m. ET and be simultaneously broadcast on Peacock. Meanwhile, the special will also begin airing on Telemundo at 9 p.m. ET.

The slate of holiday performances will take place right around the arrival of new music from several of the artists set to hit the stage: the JoBros seventh album, Greetings from Your Hometown, will be released one month later on August 8 while Palmer’s third full-length, Just Keke, is scheduled to drop June 20 with a corresponding visual album. Meanwhile, Church is preparing to hit the road to support his 2025 LP Evangeline vs. the Machine and Max is gearing up to release her third studio set, Don’t Click Play, on August 22.
