Austria-wide ban on the use of fireworks in the local area on New Year’s Eve

Any fireworks produces large quantities of toxic fine dust, which, due to its fineness, penetrates every apartment unfiltered and poses a health risk. The bang is a stress inducer for both animals and humans. We want a contemporary, considerate celebration culture.

Every rocket, every battery, every firecracker that is ignited in Satteins is illegal and can be reported under the Pyrotechnics Act and punished with fines of up to four figures.

We ask the population to be considerate of their surroundings and the protected goods. Even without fireworks, you can celebrate well. Safety, health and noise protection should be the top priority. Let it rip metaphorically and experience a happy new year.
