PHOENIX — For many, there's no way to mark the new year like fireworks. But we also know fireworks can cause problems with pets, veterans and neighbors trying to get some sleep.
Plus, Arizona bans the public use of anything that flies into the air.
So instead of ticking off your neighbors, here are a few places where you can go to enjoy a planned fireworks display. And with Valley Metro offering free rides, it should be easier to get there safely.
