Can I barbecue?

These translated brochures and videos are developed by the Country Fire Authority for the state of Victoria.

These resources explain the rules for using a barbecue during a fire danger period or on a Total Fire Ban day in Victoria. During a fire danger period, you must avoid barbecuing on windy days, keep the area around and above the barbecue clear, and have someone attend it at all times. On a Total Fire Ban day, only gas or electric barbecues can be used, and water must be available. The barbecue must be turned off when finished.
