If you’re planning on bringing in the New Year by using fireworks, it’s a good idea to check first with your municipality about the rules. Corner Brook has a bylaw which regulates fireworks within the city. This evening, fireworks are only permitted between the hours of 6:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. – 1:00 a.m. of January 1st. These hours are in place to make timing predictable for those with sensitivities to loud noises, and pets. This bylaw will permit fireworks tomorrow, on January 1st, for those who can’t celebrate tonight, but a permit is required. City staff recommend having water nearby in case something goes wrong, do not discharge fireworks while intoxicated, and make sure a responsible adult is always present. Have a safe and happy New Year.
