Christmas and new year crackers at the Sivakasi price
Christmas is a big festival in Pondicherry. Stars hang from balconies across the old town, midnight mass fills the Immaculate Conception Cathedral and the Sacred Heart Basilica, and a week later the whole town seems to walk down to the promenade to see the new year in.

Why crackers belong to Christmas and New Year
Both nights lead up to twelve o'clock. That makes them nights for a few good sky pieces rather than a long run of small ones: one repeater cake at midnight says more than an hour of sparklers.
What to buy
Plan around midnight. One or two repeater cakes, a few sky shots and sparklers to hand out when the clock turns. Burst at home or on your own open ground, never in the crowd on the beach road.

Christmas and New Year questions
Can I burst crackers at midnight on 31 December?
Where it is allowed, new year bursting is usually limited to a short window around midnight, and the Puducherry Police and the Puducherry Pollution Control Committee issue their own directions. Check the current notification before you buy.
Can I take crackers to the promenade on New Year's Eve?
Do not. The beach road is packed with people that night and the police manage the crowd closely. Celebrate at home and walk down afterwards.
How late can I order in December?
By the middle of December. Transport slows in Christmas week, and parcels to Pondicherry take 1 to 2 days even when the roads are quiet.
