"The fireworks were very well attended and Police are happy to report generally good behaviour and few resulting incidents." a post to the the Eyewatch - Ballarat Police Service Area Facebook page said.
Meanwhile, investigators continue to look into recent arson incidents and are concerned at the number of people conducting burn off and bonfires, despite fire restrictions remaining in place.
