- This stability followed U.S. tariffs on Chinese fireworks imports, which peaked near 145% but recently lowered to about 30%, affecting costs variably.

- While this year’s fireworks prices stayed mostly steady, officials and vendors expect future celebrations could face higher costs if tariffs remain in place.
