She added that anywhere you can see the Bicentennial Tower is a great spot.
'There's a countdown, and it just kind of brings a sense of community together. It's really nice to see the amounts of people that come to these shows, so I think just seeing everybody so excited to watch the fireworks,' said Watson. 'Be careful, be comfortable, be aware of your surroundings. We want you to enjoy the show and make it home safely as well.'
Fireworks will be launched from the Bicentennial Tower, with the show lasting about 15 minutes.
