A BerlinTrend survey reveals that 75% of Berlin residents support a ban on private fireworks for New Year's Eve, with the backing spanning multiple political parties including the Greens, Left Party, SPD, and AfD supporters. Despite strong public support, an immediate citywide ban is unlikely due to federal law, but Berlin's Interior Senator Iris Spranger has prioritized expanding no-fireworks zones and proposed new zones, with 87% of respondents welcoming more restrictions. Furthermore, 74% of Berliners back centralized, professional fireworks displays, and Senator Spranger has called for federal law adjustments to empower states to set bans and restrict fireworks to designated zones.
