Once we get past March, the city streets of New York City really start to heat up, and we all start to anticipate one holiday weekend where we don the red, white and blue and show how much love we have for this country - 4th of July weekend! This year, forget about the crowded parks that leave you with no room, or the boring cookouts at your uncle's house, why not opt for a family friendly event that brings all of the entertainment you could with for, but on the water!? The talk of the town this year has been all about the Jewel Yacht 4th of July cruise.

ELECTRIC BEACH is a weekly electronic music series at the famed downtown music space, Santos Party House. Each week we feature up-and-coming and big name electronic artists in the infamous Santos booths.

Santos Party House has the finest lighting and production system in New York City. Santos will let down the usual pretentious velvet rope that often bars true music fans from seeing intimate DJ showcases like this and apply a more egalitarian path for dance music aficionados in downtown New York.

This is an event you don't want to miss!

There's something about getting "all-access" that intrigues us all. Rather than having to deal with limitations, why not enjoy everything that a great event has to offer? That's why JulyFourth.com is giving everyone in New York City the opportunity to truly crank up their 4th of July entertainment experience this year, by offering up one of the most in-demand passes of the year - the Freedom Fest 2012 All-Access pass.

Liberté! Égalité! Fraternité! Join us for our annual Bastille Day celebration! Enoy a special menu of traditional French fare from Chef Ben Lefenfeld, live entertainment and much more! Tickets are $50 per person (including two drink tickets) and $39 for children 12 and under. On the day of the event, tickets will be $53 per person and $42 for children 12 and under.  Make your reservation today by calling the restaurant at (410) 366-9393.  

Once the summer rolls around in New York City, there's one party weekend that everyone anxiously awaits - 4th of July! There's no better day in the year to throw on that red, white and blue and party with your friends, all the while showing your love for the nation. More often than not we tend to stick to the same routine, leaving us in crowded parks, bars, and lame cookouts. This year make sure to change things up and be a part of an alternative 4th of July event in New York City that isn't at your stereotypical party venue.
