Residents wishing to discharge fireworks are reminded that home displays are not permitted in the City of Fredericton, and to plan a public display, organizers must make a formal request and follow the Fireworks By-law pertaining to the discharge of fireworks.
Public Fireworks Displays

The fireworks supervisor from this company will apply for a permit requesting the City of Fredericton to authorize the display a minimum of 14 days prior to the proposed date of display.
