About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the fireworks display bond actually covers

A display of fireworks bond is a public-safety and indemnity guarantee to the City of Hartford. A public fireworks display carries real risk to spectators and nearby property, so the City conditions the display permit on a surety bond standing behind the operator.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Hartford (the obligee). If the display causes damage the operator is responsible for, the City — and harmed parties it protects — can recover against the bond.

Because the figure is set by the City rather than a single statewide statute, you enter whatever amount Hartford names on the permit and we price the bond from $100, based on that amount and your credit tier — the same honest pricing as every bond we write.
