Fireworks in the Community

Spectacular, safe, and legal fireworks displays are authorised by the Explosives Inspectorate, a specialist division of Resources Safety and Health Queensland – the government authority that regulates the safe use of all explosives (including fireworks) in Queensland.

Authorised displays are conducted by professional, licenced operators using approved firework products. Authorised displays have met legislative requirements that include safety planning and community notification obligations.

Fireworks and Animals

• Talk to your vet about options to manage noise phobias.
• If you have a dog, take it for a walk in the afternoon, a few hours before dinner.
• If you are home, keep your pet comfortable in the best way that you can.
• You can try to engage them in normal activities such as playing, and reward your dog for calm behaviour with treats or toys.
• Create a comfortable space for your pet with curtains closed, put on music to help mask the outside noise.
• Never tether your dog during these times as they can injure themselves when fretting.
• Make sure your dog or cat is microchipped and that your contact details are up to date so that if they do accidentally escape they can be reunited easier. ID tags on their collar are also helpful.
• Keep cats indoors, they will usually find their own place to hide and venture out when the noise stops.
• Small animals should also be housed securely during fireworks.
• Horses are particularly vulnerable to bolting when exposed to fireworks.
• If possible, they should be securely stabled, or moved to a different location away from the fireworks display. Remove any sharp objects that might injure a panicking animal, cover stable windows to hide the sight of the fireworks and dim the noise, and make sure you supply plenty of food and water.

Environment and Sustainability

At Skylighter Fireworks, we take our impact on the environment very seriously. The fireworks industry often, and in some cases rightly comes under scrutiny regarding concerns not only with safety, but also the environmental impact.

As a large display company, our responsibilities are greater than the bulk of our competitors, which is why we are constantly striving to find ways to control and reduce any detrimental effects we may bring upon the environment. This is not only good practice for the company in general but also breeds a culture of recycling, waste reduction and environmental protection to our staff and customers.

We have strived to reduce our waste by reviewing the make and consumables that go into all our fireworks. Through elimination of plastics, we have changed the output of our no recyclable waste.
