===Australia=== In Australia bonfires are rarely allowed in the warmer months due to fire danger. Legislation about bonfires varies between states, metropolitan and rural regions, local government areas, and property types.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.rfs.nsw.gov.au/fire-information/BFDP |title=Bush Fire Danger Period and Fire Permits |publisher=NSW Rural Fire Service |access-date=3 January 2019}}</ref> For example, in urban areas of [[Canberra]] bonfires may be lit around the [[King's Official Birthday]] if local fire authorities are notified; however, they are banned the rest of the year.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Canberra |title=Bonfires in the ACT |url=https://www.accesscanberra.act.gov.au/app/answers/detail/a_id/1084/~/bonfires-in-the-act |access-date=2021-04-15 |website=www.accesscanberra.act.gov.au |language=en}}</ref> Smaller fires such as [[campfire]]s and outdoor [[barbecue]]s are usually permitted outside of fire restriction periods. In the state of Queensland, the rural town of Killarney hosts an annual Bonfire night for the greater community; proceeds support the town's aged care facilities.
