All Fireworks are banned in the City of Fremont
Fremont’s public safety departments would like to remind Fremont residents, businesses, and visitors that the sale, possession, and use of all fireworks are banned within the city of Fremont. This ban includes the “safe and sane” variety of fireworks that are legal in some other cities. The ban, in effect since December 1986, has helped reduce the number of injuries, wildland fires, and structure fires caused by fireworks in the city of Fremont.

COVID is still with us. Make the best choices for you and those around you:
- Get vaccinated and boosted.
- Gatherings that are small and outdoors are safer.
- If gathering indoors, wearing a high-quality mask and improving ventilation can add layers of safety.
- Get tested if exposed or sick.
- Stay home if ill, whether you can get tested or not.
- If positive, contact your health care provider right away to get treatment and don’t wait until symptoms get worse.
