Few places in Davis County do the Fourth of July like West Point — and this year the stakes are even higher, because America turns 250.

Fireworks Rules This Year: Check Before You Light
Utah is in the middle of a historic wildfire season, and on June 25 Gov. Spencer Cox announced temporary statewide fireworks restrictions running through July 5. Under the order, personal fireworks are prohibited statewide unless a city — working with its fire officials — designates specific safe areas.
According to Deseret News/KSL reporting, West Point is among the communities where the North Davis Fire District has designated areas where personal fireworks may be allowed. We have not been able to confirm the exact boundaries or hours from an official city posting, so before lighting anything, check the city’s current restriction map and the North Davis Fire District’s announcements directly via westpointutah.gov — and know that fines for violations can reach $1,000, plus liability for fire-suppression costs.
Pioneer Day: July 24
West Point hasn’t published a city-run Pioneer Day event for 2026, but the holiday is easy to celebrate close to home:
- Days of ’47 celebrations, Salt Lake City — Utah’s flagship Pioneer Day parade and festivities return on and around Friday, July 24; see daysof47.com for the 2026 schedule.
- Bountiful Handcart Days — Pioneer Day weekend fun in south Davis County, July 24–25, with park nights, races, and a parade; details at handcartdays.org.
Heads up: state officials will evaluate wildfire conditions before deciding whether fireworks restrictions return for the Pioneer Day window (July 22–25), so watch for announcements.
