Tariffs were raised to 145% but were later reduced to 30% after a temporary agreement [23][28]. - Importers are exploring alternatives from countries like Cambodia and Brazil, but these countries lack the capacity to meet U.S. demand [24]. - Concerns are growing about the potential impact of tariffs on the upcoming 250th anniversary celebrations in 2026, with industry representatives warning that events may be shorter, more expensive, and less impressive without tariff exemptions [26][27].

Core Viewpoint - The U.S. government's tariff policy has significantly increased the cost of fireworks for American consumers, impacting the fireworks industry ahead of Independence Day celebrations. Group 1: Tariff Impact - The fireworks industry is heavily reliant on imports from China, with over 95% of fireworks sold in the U.S. coming from there [4] - The imposition of tariffs, potentially as high as 400%, has raised concerns about the viability of domestic fireworks production, which is not feasible due to a lack of resources in the U.S. [3] - Industry leaders have expressed that the current tariff situation has led to unprecedented volatility in pricing and supply chains [5] Group 2: Industry Response - Many small fireworks businesses are facing cash flow issues, leading some importers to halt deliveries to avoid high tariffs, resulting in shortages and price increases for consumers [7] - The American Pyrotechnics Association and the National Fireworks Association have urged the U.S. government for tariff exemptions, warning that failure to do so could severely damage the fireworks industry and jeopardize events like the 250th anniversary of the U.S. in 2026 [7] - If tariff exemptions are granted, prices are expected to rise by 10% to 15% next year; without exemptions, the increase could reach 35% to 45% [9]

从业15年，易鑫对于烟花秀的走红深有感触。与转瞬即逝的烟花不同，一场烟花秀的准备工作十分复杂。易鑫从团队构成、地点选择、燃放成本三个角 度，深度剖析了一场烟花秀的里里外外。团队构成方面，一支成熟的烟花燃放团队主要由负责烟花"声光色形"创意设计的工艺美术师、负责烟花礼弹安全的 安全员、负责电脑数控点火的燃放人员，以及负责储存运送的仓储运输人员等多工种工作人员构成。 易鑫进一步解释道，在人员齐全的情况下，接手一个类似于"青岛上合峰会"级别的烟花秀表演，一般准备周期长达三到六个月。而在景区做项目之前， 团队会对施工燃放和场景化的打造条件进行前期考察，并作出具体安排。值得一提的是，对于众人感兴趣的烟花秀规模及其背后的燃放成本问题，易鑫解 释，行业内主要以礼花弹的数量和燃放时间两个维度对其规模和成本进行衡量。如果涵盖多媒体舞台、无人机表演，相关的费用成本将更高，应该在"百万 级"甚至以上。 央广网北京6月27日消息（记者王娴 尧遥）据中央广播电视总台中国之声《新闻有观点》报道，"烟花+无人机"演绎的"天空之门"、如梦如幻的"蓝色流 星雨"、绮丽华美的"七彩祥云"……从国内特色景区到世界顶级赛事的舞台，一场场绚烂的高空烟 ...
