Global Danger Dates (Fireworks)

Fireworks terrify many dogs — and the riskiest nights depend on where you live. Pick your country to see the year ahead’s fireworks dates, then add them to your calendar so no celebration catches you off guard. Travelling with your dog? Check the dates wherever you’re headed.

Pick your country to see its fireworks dates for the next year and add them to your calendar. Fixed dates repeat yearly; variable dates (Diwali, Lunar New Year, Eid…) use the known dates plus a yearly reminder.
