New Years Eve is synonymous with colourful fireworks lighting up the night sky to usher in the coming year. However, in many municipalities across the country, fireworks are no longer allowed.
Every year, many municipalities across the country ban fireworks, firecrackers, and sparklers on New Year's Eve due to safety, environmental, and animal welfare concerns. Below, you'll find an overview of which municipalities implemented bans last year (2023/2024) and which ones have restrictions in place for this year (2024/2025).
If your municipality has introduced new rules this year, let us know! Send an email to ofgesot@rtl.lu with the press release, announcement, or social media post where the information is published. You don't need to provide the official document, just the text is enough. However, we cannot accept links to non-official email addresses.
If your municipality isn't included in our list, we recommend reaching out to them directly to confirm the rules in place in your area.
