AnswerAt Trinity Site, White Sands Missle Range. New Mexico about 35 miles souteast of Socorro.

Technically, the Trinity test did not use a bomb. "The Gadget", as it was known, was a full nuclear plutonium implosion design assembly, but did not have any of the normal bomb components; thus, it wasn't encased in an aerodynamic shell, have any of the required electronic aerial detonation trigger components, or any of the rest of parts which were required to make a fully-functioning weapon. Rather, it was just the nuclear core explosive device itself, and used an external command trigger (essentially, a wired detonation signal from a bunker several miles away).

Thus, to be completely (pedantically) accurate, the first atomic bomb explosion was on the first combat use, at Hiroshima, Japan, on 6 August 1945.

July 16, 1945 in New Mexico.

That's where the testing took place for the bomb.

However, its use in combat took place in Hiroshima, Japan and Nagasaki, Japan.
