Fireworks in Lynn Haven follow Florida Statute Ch. 791 - consumer fireworks (aerial and exploding) are legal only on July 4, December 31, and January 1. Outside those three days, only 'sparklers' on the State Fire Marshal approved list are legal.
Florida HB 65 (2020) amended F.S. 791.08 to authorize consumer fireworks (including aerial shells and firecrackers) on three holidays: July 4, December 31, and January 1. Lynn Haven follows this statewide framework and does not extend or shorten the windows. Fireworks may not be discharged on public property, on a city park, or in a way that creates a fire risk under Sec. 42-10 (open-fire prohibition). The city hosts an annual official July 4 fireworks display at Sheffield Park. Any commercial display requires a Florida State Fire Marshal permit and coordination with Lynn Haven Fire Department.
Discharging fireworks outside the F.S. 791.08 windows is a 1st-degree misdemeanor under state law - up to $1,000 and/or 1 year in jail. Local enforcement is by LHPD and Lynn Haven Fire.
