Yuma restricts fireworks to permissible consumer items only during designated state periods. Aerial fireworks and firecrackers are illegal statewide. Use is restricted to private property within city limits under Chapter 139 of the Yuma City Code.
Yuma City Code Chapter 139 regulates fireworks within city limits, aligned with state law (ARS §36-1606). Only 'Permissible Consumer Fireworks' (ground-level items like sparklers, smoke devices, fountains) are legal. Anything that leaves the ground (rockets, bottle rockets), shoots flaming material into the air (roman candles), or explodes (firecrackers) is illegal statewide. Sale is permitted during designated periods: April 25-May 6, May 20-July 6, December 10-January 3, and during Diwali. Use within Yuma city limits is restricted to private property. Given Yuma's extreme heat and dry conditions, fire danger from fireworks is elevated. The Yuma Fire Department actively enforces fireworks regulations.
Illegal fireworks possession or use may result in citations, fines, and confiscation. Starting fires with fireworks may result in criminal charges.
