This is a reminder to all Bellingham residents and visitors that all consumer fireworks are prohibited within the City of Bellingham. This includes fountains, sparklers, smokeballs and ground-spinning fireworks commonly referred to as “safe and sane” fireworks, in addition to rockets, aerial missiles, roman candles, and other projectile fireworks.
Education and enforcement activities are planned this year — including extra patrols for fireworks complaints — to help ensure residents and visitors are aware of Bellingham’s fireworks ban, which has been in place for more than a decade.
Those who wish to enjoy fireworks are encouraged to attend public displays, such as the fireworks display over Bellingham Bay presented as part of the annual 4th of July Spectacular, planned this year at Zuanich Point Park at 10:30pm. Be safe out there and Happy Independence Day!
