June is National Fireworks Safety Month — a perfect time to plan summer celebrations that are fun and safe. Fireworks are exciting, but they also contribute to thousands of emergency room visits and fires each year.

While small displays put on near the home often seem safe, small fireworks can still pose a serious safety risk. However, there are plenty of ways to celebrate safely this summer. This can include laser light shows, drone displays, festive block parties, glow sticks, and confetti poppers.

It’s important to remember that even with precautions, accidents can still happen. Now is a good time to check in on your coverage and make sure you understand your liability basics heading into the season.
