Fireworks Near Me: Brick’s 4th Of July 2020
Patch has your complete guide to Fourth of July fireworks shows in and around Brick.
BRICK, NJ – July 4 events across the country will not look the same this year thanks to the coronavirus. Many cities and towns have been forced to cancel the annual Fourth of July events.
In Brick, the annual Summerfest concert series has been pushed back to August, a decision that was made as officials waited to see what the changes in restrictions on public gatherings will allow. Summerfest usually kicks off with fireworks around the Fourth of July but will not this year.
In Toms River, Sipe Adjustment Group is sponsoring a fireworks display at 9 p.m. July 4. The best vantage point to see the Shelter Cove display will be from Barnegat Bay (for boaters) or from the barrier island.

Sipe Adjustment Group has partnered with WRAT 95.9 FM for the audio choreographed display. And while Shelter Cove Park is small and will likely fill up quickly, they are suggesting other parks and spots where the view should be good:
- Skyview Park, 811 Vaughn Ave., Toms River
- Parking Lots at Indian Hill Road and Hooper Avenue in Toms River
- Silver Bay waterfront in Toms River
- Chadwick Beach
- Lavallette, Ortley Beach & Seaside Heights bay fronts
- Ocean Beach 1, 2, & 3
- Normandy Beach
The Lakewood BlueClaws are hosting a fireworks display on July 3 at FirstEnergy Park, New Hampshire and Cedar Bridge avenues in Lakewood. Tickets to that event — both inside the stadium and in the parking lot — are sold out, however you may be able to see at least part of the display from some of the parking lots at businesses near the stadium.
