The Municipality of Chatham-Kent is reviewing its fireworks bylaw and looking for community perspectives through a survey. Part of the review is to ensure that the bylaw reflects the diversity of holidays celebrated in our community. Currently, fireworks can legally be set off in Chatham-Kent on the following days:

  • Victoria Day and the three days before and after it
  • Canada Day and the three days before and after it
  • New Year's Day and New Year's Eve
  • Diwali
  • Days proclaimed by Municipal Council as suitable for celebration with fireworks.


Share your perspectives in a short survey on Let's Talk Chatham-Kent before 4PM on December 16th.
