As we prepare to ring in the new year, the City of Pearland Fire Marshal would like to remind residents that the possession or use of fireworks within City of Pearland city limits and the surrounding extraterritorial jurisdiction is prohibited by City Ordinance.

The Pearland Fire Marshal’s Office and Pearland Police Department will be actively enforcing this ordinance. Individuals violating the ordinance face a class C misdemeanor that can carry a fine of up to $2,000 per violation and may also result in the confiscation and subsequent destruction of any illegal fireworks found within the City of Pearland’s jurisdiction.

Please call 281.997.4650 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday with any fireworks-related questions. Click here to view a copy of the City of Pearland fireworks ordinance.
