Get Fire Ready

Prepare for the fire season with CFA’s Get Fire Ready 2025.

As Victoria heads into what is expected to be a challenging fire season, it’s more important than ever for residents and property owners to understand their local fire risk and take steps to prepare.

Know your risk: Every town, property and community is different—understand your local risk and how to prepare.

Know where to get up to date information: Download the VicEmergency app and create a watch zone.

Take action now: Prepare a fire plan, clean up around your property, and talk to your family about fire safety.

Learn about fire danger ratings, safer places, brigades, and CFA events in your local area by entering your address on our Local Information page.

Whether you live, work or travel in a high-risk area or just want to be better prepared:
