July 4th Fireworks Celebration: When and Where to Watch Township Fireworks Show

Fireworks will ignite the skies above East Brunswick and the community will overflow with music and chicken wings for the township's July 4th bash.

The festivities will take place at the Cultural Arts Center, located at 721 Cranbury Road, this Friday beginning at 4 p.m. In the event of inclement weather, the celebration will take place Saturday.

Area 80's cover band The Emulators will kick off the music starting at 5:30 p.m. and Brian Kirk & The Jirks will perform at 7:30 p.m.

There will be a wing-eating contest taking place between the two acts at 7 p.m. for those daring enough to tackle the challenge.

The fireworks display will begin at dusk.

While unapologetic fun is encouraged, alcoholic beverages, personal fireworks and animals except for service dogs are prohibited.

Parking will be available at the Cultural Arts Center and at Heavenly Farms after the arts center lot is full.

Parking at the center may be accessed by Cranbury Road and Dunhams Corner Road. Parking at Heavenly Farms will only be accessible through Dunhams Corner Road. Police will direct traffic at the close of the event.

The event, parking and the fireworks show are all free to the public. Interested persons may call 732-390-6797 for more information.
