Firework Restrictions Summer 2024

I’ve had many phone calls wondering where people will be allowed to light fireworks this year.
 
Fireworks of any kind will not be allowed to be fired off, lit, or used anywhere in unincorporated Rich County. Municipalities can decide if they allow them and where those boundaries are.
 
In Garden City, fireworks will only be allowed at the Garden City Heritage Park, at the East end of the big parking lot (East of the pickleball courts), and only 2 days prior to the 4th and 24th of July, and only until 1 day after the 4th and 24th of July.
 
The fire department will have personnel on site at those times and fireworks will only be allowed until 11 pm, with the exception of July 4th. On July 4th, you may light them at that location until midnight.
 
Please be safe and have a fun holiday!
