It’s hard to believe that fall is right around the corner! And the thing we look most forward to is opening our doors in early fall. That’s when we showcase ourselves and give Naperville residents a glimpse into all that is the Naperville Fire Department and Naperville Police Department.

So… SAVE THE DATE!

The always family-friendly event will take place:

  • 10AM-2PM Sat., Sept. 27, 2025
  • Public Safety Campus – 1380 Aurora Avenue
  • Parking available at Safety Town and the church across the street

This event is perfect for families and scouts! The purpose of this event is to disseminate important crime and fire prevention information to Naperville residents and encourage citizen action on crime and fire prevention strategies. Both departments firmly believe that citizens are the number one defense against fire and crime and want to spread the word that residents need to “Prepare, Practice and Prevent” to keep their families safe.

This must-see event will include a variety of activities, including a demonstration from the fire department’s Technical Rescue Team, a K-9 demonstration, and a flashover fire demonstration. A large display of Fire and Police vehicles and equipment will also be on-site.

The fire truck slide also will be here! Do you like food trucks? Visits by Sparky and McGruff will be back again, as well.

The Public Safety Open House is an event that the entire community will enjoy while gaining valuable safety information for their families, neighborhoods, and workplaces. This event is perfect for scouts! Safety Town will be open!
