Windsor Fire & Rescue Services is reminding residents about the rules surrounding fireworks ahead of the Victoria Day long weekend.

In a post shared on X, the department noted that consumer fireworks are only permitted in Windsor on Victoria Day — as well as the day immediately before and after the holiday.

Under the city’s fireworks bylaw, fireworks are also permitted the day before Canada Day through July 4, along with New Year’s Eve.

Windsor Fire is encouraging residents planning to set off fireworks this weekend to do so safely and responsibly.
