Firework Control Zone - Citywide

Overview

We are considering putting in place Firework Control Zones in Edinburgh. 

Residents of Edinburgh have requested a Firework Control Zone to be put in place for the whole of the City of Edinburgh boundary area.  We would now like your views on this.

A Firework Control Zone will mean that certain fireworks will no longer be permitted to be set off in this area.

It will also be a crime under the Fireworks and Pyrotechnics Act Scotland 2022, enforceable by law, by which you can be arrested if you set off a firework in a Firework Control Zone.
