A fireworks show can be announced, staged... then scrapped at the last moment! In the Val-de-Marne, many towns plan celebrations for the National Day, with organized launches on July 13 and 14, 2026. But if the weather deteriorates, if the wind picks up too much, or if the fire risk rises, municipalities may decide to postpone or cancel their show.
This year, some towns in the department have already adjusted their plans. The decision may come directly from the town hall, which prefers to err on the side of caution, or from authorities when special rules are in place. A prefectural decree can, in particular, restrict or ban fireworks in the most sensitive areas—for instance near woods, parks, or natural spaces.
