Full Breakdown

Under Idaho Falls City Code § 6-2-15, dangerous fireworks may not be sold or conveyed to anyone except a holder of a fireworks permit for public display or their employee. Safe-and-sane fireworks may only be sold under a City-issued permit (§ 6-2-5), valid from midnight June 23 through midnight July 5 (§ 6-2-7). Discharging or igniting fireworks within fifty feet of a parade route curb line, or within any area of public gathering designated by the Chief of Police, is unlawful during the posted time period (§ 6-2-18). The Fire and Police Departments may seize fireworks sold or possessed in violation of the chapter and revoke permits for cause.

Violations & Fines

Selling dangerous fireworks without a display permit, selling safe-and-sane fireworks without a City permit, or discharging fireworks in a restricted parade or gathering zone can lead to seizure, permit revocation, and misdemeanor charges.
