St. Michael relies on Minnesota Statute § 624.20-.25 to regulate consumer fireworks: non-aerial, non-explosive items (sparklers, fountains, snakes) are legal for adults 18+, while firecrackers, bottle rockets, and aerial shells are illegal anywhere in Minnesota. Use is also constrained by Sec. 91.18 if it disturbs the peace.
St. Michael has not adopted a local fireworks ordinance more restrictive than state law. Minn. Stat. § 624.20 limits 'consumer fireworks' to sparklers, cone fountains, snakes, glow worms, smoke devices, and certain trick noisemakers — anything that explodes or leaves the ground is prohibited. Possession or use by anyone under 18 is illegal. Use on public property (streets, parks) is prohibited. Use that disturbs the peace late at night, especially after sunset, can additionally be cited under Sec. 91.18(AE). For ceremonial displays exceeding consumer thresholds, a state-licensed pyrotechnic display permit is required.
Illegal aerial/explosive fireworks are a petty misdemeanor under Minn. Stat. § 624.25 (up to $300 fine); large-scale possession is a misdemeanor (up to $1,000 / 90 days). Use that creates a nuisance is separately citable under Sec. 91.18.
