In Bentonville, fireworks may only be set off from July 3 to July 4 between noon and midnight — anything fired with a stick is banned.

Other nearby areas have their own dates and restrictions that residents should follow.

Officials in Benton County are urging residents to use fireworks safely ahead of the Fourth of July as licensed stands open across Arkansas with sales continuing through July 10 — residents in city limits should check local ordinances and follow key tips like having a sober adult light fireworks, keeping a bucket of water nearby, and sheltering pets indoors. The fire marshal stressed that using fireworks outdoors away from buildings will help ensure a safe celebration.
