Penn Treaty Park

Delaware Avenue and Beach Street

Penn Treaty Park’s seven acres of open green space and clean picnic areas provide a great vantage point from which to watch the fireworks.

Race Street Pier

Race Street and Delaware Avenue

This is an amazing spot to watch but we recommend you get there early, as it’s probably going to fill up fast.
