Pyrotechnics Overview

Any individual or pyrotechnic company conducting a pyrotechnic display on State Property or in a State Building, must apply for and obtain a permit prior to the display. Application for a permit must be submitted to the Office of the State Fire Marshal fifteen (15) days before the event is to take place. An inspection of the event (pre-show) is to be conducted by the State Fire Marshal’s Office before a permit is issued. A representative from the State Fire Marshal’s Office must be present for the event.
