Ocean City Fireworks July 4, 2016: Latest Schedule Updates

Ocean City, NJ -- The Independence Day fireworks show scheduled for the Music Pier at 10 p.m. was still on as of 11 a.m. Monday morning, Ocean City officials said.

Any postponement would be the result of inclement weather closer to the beginning of the show.

If the show is postponed, it will take place on Tuesday night, July 5.

They will be launched from a barge at sea off the Ocean City Music Pier between Eighth and Ninth streets. The show can best be viewed from the beach or boardwalk between Fifth Street and 14th Street.

The popular Tidal Wave Band will perform one hour before and after the fireworks in front of the Music Pier.

Listen for a simulcast of music for the fireworks display on Ocean City's WIBG-FM, 94.3.
