Photos: A first look inside the dreamy 2025 Macy's Flower Show
Fragrant lilies, puffy hydrangeas and vibrant mums have been combined to create a dreamy floral escape inside Macy's Herald Square location. An annual rite of spring, this year's Macy's Flower Show, titled "Floral Dreams Unfold," is now on view through May 18.
The show begins outside the store with the retailer's signature windows. Each one features lush floral displays, alongside this season's fashions. Then, the journey continues inside, where you'll be met with swirling floral spirals, a shimmery beanstalk decoration and topiary chameleons. As you continue through the store, look for a dragonfly display, a tribute to bees and a cool digital installation.
Find the show at 151 W 34th Street, between Sixth and Seventh Avenues. The destination is free to visit, so be prepared for crowds. Here's a sneak peek at some of the most beautiful installations.

The 2025 Macy's July 4 fireworks will be launched from NYC's East River
Good news for East Siders and Brooklynites: The Macy's Fourth of July Fireworks are returning to the Brooklyn Bridge and the East River for 2025. Specifically, the show will launch from the iconic Brooklyn Bridge and four barges positioned on the lower East River in the Seaport District. Macy's hasn't yet provided a list of best viewing spots, but you can expect miles of prime public viewing. The spectacular display is the largest Independence Day in the nation, which paints the skyline in an extraordinary display of light and sound. It's been a pyrotechnic tradition since 1976 for good reason—the show is truly incredible. Though exact timings haven't been announced, last year's show began at 9:25pm, so keep that in mind when making your plans for Friday, July 4. As for viewing locations, any anywhere with an unobstructed view of the sky above the lower East River should do the trick. In the coming weeks, keep an eye out for additional details on public viewing, as well as a city-sponsored lottery for free public viewing tickets. Last year, the fireworks were hosted on the west side of the city, delighting west siders and New Jerseyans. For a decade prior to that, the fireworks had been launched from the East River, and now they're back. "Macy's doesn't just light up the sky—we ignite a shared tradition," said Will Coss, Macy's 4th of July Fireworks executive producer, in a press release. "By bringing the fireworks to New York City and communities across the country, we create a spectacular event that celebrates joy, unity and togetherness. We are proud to bring people together year after year to honor the traditions that connect us all." While the show brings hordes of New Yorkers to sidewalks and viewing parties, it's also broadcast across the nation on NBC and Peacock for all to enjoy beginning at 8pm.

Another day, another Memorial Day sale. This time, we are looking at what Macy's has to offer over the long weekend. The TLDR: The department store is offering up to 60% items across all categories — including clothing, kids items, furniture and more. The sale runs through May 26 — during which the retailer will also be dropping daily beauty deals that last for 24-hours only. Worth noting: The last day of beauty deals is May 25. I scoured everything that's currently discounted and found the best deals to be in the home and kitchen departments — including items from Ninja, Le Crueset and Cusinart. Check out some of the top sales below. Want more from NBC Select? Sign up for our newsletter, The Selection, and shop smarter. Currently on sale during Macy's Memorial Day Sale Dyson makes some of NBC Select editors' favorite vacuums. This cordless stick vacuum has a powerful mode for everyday use and a MAX mode that can run for up to seven minutes to clean up bigger messes, according to the brand. It gives you 40-minutes of continuous runtime on a fully charged battery and has the ability to convert into a handheld vacuum. Have a few trips planned for summer? This carry-on bag can make packing easier. The bag weighs just over six pounds, has spinner wheels that go in all directions and it has a lightweight but durable polycarbonate shell. Inside you'll find that one side is fully enclosed by a zipper and the other side has compression straps to keep your stuff in place. I have a few high-quality knives that I've invested in — and then I have this affordable set in my drawer, too. I like that I don't have to be as precious with them because, at under $15, once they're dull or no longer in great shape, I can just toss them. The set comes in fun colors and prints and includes a chef's knife, slicing knife, serrated knife and paring knife — all of which come with blade guards. With this set, you get three rectangular baking dishes — a 1.1-, 2.5- and 4-quart dish. The dishes all have a scratch-resistant glaze in a bright color (choose from five shades) and are safe up to 500 degrees. Another bonus: You can put them in the dishwasher, according to the brand. One of our favorite ice cream makers, the Ninja Creami comes with two pint containers. Freeze your ice cream ingredients in them, then screw on the processing lid, stick it into the machine and the Creami will turn it into ice cream, gelato, sorbet or a smoothie bowl base (depending on the setting you choose). There is also a mix-in function that allows you to add things like crushed up cookies or fruit to integrate into your frozen treat. Created exclusively for Macy's, this sheet set has a 550 thread count and is made from 100% cotton. The fitted sheet will accommodate mattresses up to 17-inches deep and the set is available in sizes twin through queen. These sheets come in 15 different colors and have a 4.3-star average rating from nearly 10,000 reviews at Macy's. This rug is 7.6-feet by 9.6-feet in size and is currently 79% off. It's got a low pile, which makes it easier to vacuum and spot clean and has a multi-colored geometric pattern that will compliment an array of design aesthetics. Why trust NBC Select?

This massive sculpture brings eerie beauty to the foot of Market Street
If you haven't noticed the massive woman in front of the Ferry Building on Market Street in San Francisco, take time to make the trek. We recommend going at night when her eerie lighting cycles through blue and purple. This incredible artwork— R-Evolution, a representation of a woman standing 48 feet tall—makes anyone passing by have to acknowledge her power and vitality as she stands poised, arms open and ready to spring (or maybe that's just how we see it!). R-Evolution was first seen on the Black Rock Desert of Nevada at Burning Man 2015, and a foiled plan would have originally had her comparing heights with the Dewey Monument in Union Square. (That 85-foot statue in front of Macy's is Winged Victory atop her column, reportedly modeled after Alma Spreckels, who gave us the Legion of Honor museum. But we digress!) However, fears that the statue's weight would bring her down into the parking garage below Union Square prompted her venue change to the Embarcadero. Here's a rendering of how she would have looked at Union Square. R-Evolution is part of a triad of sculptures called The Bliss Project by Marco Cochrane and depicts 'a woman, Deja Solis, expressing her humanity,' according to the press release. R-Evolution began as a hand-sculpted three-quarters life-sized clay figure. Using a medieval-era enlargement tool called a pantograph, Cochrane transformed that into a 15-foot clay version, and then again used the pantograph to triple the sculpture to her final metal form. The finished sculpture is composed of steel rod and tubing, with two layers of geodesic triangles (which required 55,000 individual welds) covered by a stainless-steel mesh. Because of the statue's construction, she is partially transparent, which creates the sense that she is both majestically strong and grounded to the earth, but also ethereal. Cochrane, who began sculpting in his 20s, was born to American artists in Venice, Italy, in 1962 and raised in Northern California during that era of change. 'As a result, Marco learned respect for oneness, balance and the imperative to make the world a better place,' reports the press release. 'In particular, he identified with the female struggle with oppression and saw feminine energy and power as critical to the world's balance.'
