Answer
Fire spinning, sword swallowing, and similar risk acts require explicit Town approval, insurance, and often fire-marshal oversight—impromptu fire poi on the planks is prohibited. Spectators should keep safe distance and never hand children sparklers near alcohol crowds. Unlicensed danger acts should be reported to police rather than filmed up close.
