However, the entity announced that as the days leading up to Christmas and New Year pass, more points of purchase will be opened to the public, with the intention of offering legal and appropriate fireworks for the celebrations of this December 2021.
What requirements must pyrotechnic fairs meet?
According to Sucamec, these fairs must be authorized under the necessary protocols, a measure that started with the first authorized fair in Arequipa.
