Fireworks in Philly.

Plan on watching Philadelphia's fireworks show Saturday?

VisitPhilly has put together an interactive map showing the best places – mostly along the Delaware River – to catch clear views of this year's New Years Eve displays.

There will be two chances to watch the shows, each featuring different choreographies and soundtracks. The first begins at 6 p.m. and the later show starts at midnight.

Among the spots VisitPhilly recommends are the Blue Cross RiverRink Winterfest, Penn's Landing or the Battleship New Jersey, but its complete guide – found here - includes 23 spots to watch or celebrate. 

The shows will also be broadcast live on NBC10 and Telemundo 62.

SugarHouse Casino is sponsoring the fireworks displays, which cost $150,000 to put on, Philly.com reported. The casino also announced earlier this month that it renewed its sponsorship of the Mummers parade until 2020.
