Fireworks

As of Jan. 1, 2024 consumer fireworks are no longer permitted in Woodstock. A ban on fireworks reduces:

• the risk of fires, injury and property damage
• air pollution and debris
• excessive noise
• negative impacts on animal and their habitats

If you see or hear someone setting off fireworks in Woodstock, please contact the Woodstock Police Service non-emergency line 519-421-2800, extension 9.

The bylaw regulating the sale and discharge of consumer fireworks is Chapter #0802 of the Municipal Code. 

If you would like to apply for a permit to host a professional firework display, you must submit an application to the Woodstock Fire Department.
