Bonfire Night Celebrations

West Yorkshire Police is working alongside West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service to promote firework safety this Bonfire Night.

Thousands of people will enjoy fireworks safely, however, a small minority of people use fireworks to cause crime and nuisance in their local communities.

Any action where fireworks are used to harass, intimidate or cause damage to others is a criminal act and anti-social.

We will not tolerate this behaviour and the consequences are serious. You can be fined an unlimited amount or potentially risk jail for up to six months for selling or using fireworks illegally.
