Over 1,500 calls were dealt with.

Ahead of last night, DFB issued safety warnings highlighting fire risks hiding in plain sight as well as common mistakes that cause risk.

Additionally, a live map of fire related incidents was launched by DFB ahead of Halloween night.

Chief Fire Officer Greg O'Dwyer said calls were related to house fires, car fires, anti-social behaviour, and a number of serious road traffic collisions.

He added that while the call volume was "extremely high", but added that there were no reports of any firework related injuries.

Furthermore, O'Dwyer said there were no injuries reported by members of the fire crew and thanked An Garda Síochána for cooperating with the fire service.
