What to know about Arizona’s fireworks rules

• The second and third days of Diwali each year

For the most part, residents can light up fireworks between 8 a.m. and 11 p.m. during these days. However, on Dec. 31 to Jan. 1 and July 4 to July 5 of each year, residents are able to light fireworks until 1 a.m. due to the holidays.

Arizona also outlines when it is legal to purchase fireworks:

• April 25 through May 6

• May 20 through July 6

• Dec. 10 through Jan. 3

• Two days before the first day of Diwali through the third day of Diwali each year. 

Purchasing or selling fireworks in Arizona outside of these dates is illegal and can result in a fine or, in extreme cases, jail.

State law outlines that the use of fireworks on public property, such as parks, streets and sidewalks, is not allowed.

The usage of fireworks is prohibited at all times within a one-mile radius of the border of any municipal or county mountain preserve, desert park, regional park, designated conservation area, national forest or wilderness area.

Fireworks are only permitted to be used by residents on private property.
