The Skinny on Sparklers: Fireworks within the City Limits? Nada
If you're planning a backyard blowout within the city limits of San Antonio, you might want to swap the fireworks for glow sticks. Using fireworks inside the city is a big no-no, punishable by a fine that could put a damper on your celebratory spirit (and maybe even leave a hole in your wallet).
But fear not, firework fanatic! There's still hope for your pyrotechnic dreams.
Head to the Hills (or Rather, Unincorporated Bexar County): Where Fireworks Fly
Venture outside the city limits to unincorporated Bexar County, and the fireworks game changes. Here, you can light up the night sky with sparklers, poppers, and some other crowd-pleasers, but there are still some rules to follow.
QuickTip: Scroll back if you lose track.
- Double-check the calendar: There might be temporary restrictions in place depending on the time of year.
- Brush up on Bexar County regulations: Not all fireworks are created equal. Make sure the ones you choose are legal in the county.
- Be a good neighbor: Let folks around you know your plans to avoid any unwanted surprises (and potential calls to the fire department).
Remember: Safety first! Always have a water source nearby and follow proper firework handling procedures.
