Cooper said he appreciated people wanted to enjoy their weekends.
However, fireworks needed to be used responsibly, and people should follow instructions.
Parents and caregivers should also ensure that fireworks weren't in the hands of children or people who shouldn't use them.
"We'd rather people enjoy an organised display and stay safe," he said.
"Fireworks can get carried in the wind, there are parts of Hawke's Bay that are beginning to dry out as we head into the summer, so the risk of wildfire is real, it doesn't take much to start."
Consideration for others, people and animals, was also very important.
Probably the biggest public display of fireworks in the region will take place on Saturday night at Meeanee Speedway's stockcar meet.
Blast in the Park in Havelock North's Anderson Park is scheduled for Friday, November 11.
MetService meteorologist John Law said there will not be any significant winds this weekend, but Hawke's Bay could still expect some light westerlies early on Saturday before they later turn into southerlies and then easterlies on Sunday.
The Napier City Council allows for fireworks to be set off outside of private property with some stipulations.
According to the council's website, a person must not light or use an incendiary device where an uncontrolled fire may:
- spread to a building, fence or vegetation on the premises
- spread beyond the boundary of the premises
- result in a nuisance from smoke or ash to the occupiers of adjoining premises.
