Overview
- Dronten allows fireworks only on December 31 from 18:00 to 02:00 and permits carbidschieten from 10:00 to 02:00.
- Designated carbidschieten sites in Dronten include Het Maaiveld in Biddinghuizen and two grass fields in Dronten with strict shooting directions, while the in‑town Swifterbant location has been dropped after an objection.
- Zeewolde no longer permits carbidschieten inside the village, allowing it only on suitable private rural plots provided by owners or farmers that meet municipal conditions.
- Zeewolde has made its old‑year’s‑evening fireworks ban in the town center permanent for 18:00 to 20:00 to improve safety and livability.
- Dronten reiterates age and category limits, restricts sales to December 29–31 with a 25‑kilogram cap per address or vehicle, and will close the Schouwstraat parking garage from December 31 at 18:00 to January 1 at 08:00.
