Estância, a city located in the southern region of the state of Sergipe, presents unique traditions in its June celebrations. In addition to these festivities, the place is highlighted by its production of fireworks and the culture of the boat of fire. This research aims to analyze the production of fires as an income strategy based on tradition for the reproduction of family groups. It sought to understand the relationship between this identity tradition and the cultural landscape, as well as the role of networks, ties and webs that are built and maintained by the maintenance and strengthening of this cultural activity. In addition to the geographical contributions, it is intended to give visibility to the invisible subjects - producers of fires. In order to reach these objectives, the methodological approach adopted was based on the collection of theoretical information through bibliographic research related to the themes related to culture, identity, parties, patrimony, knowledge, actions, proximity relations and the concept of cultural landscape.Next, the field work was carried out, when the primary information was collected through semi-structured interviews with the firemen, helpers, firemen traders, representatives of public institutions and local population. As a result, it was found that, for the local population, the production of fires is relevant to the municipality, constituting the main attraction of the junina festival, and that, for the rockets, it consists in the preservation of a local traditional know-how that provides income. The "barracks" of production in the neighborhoods (Porto D'Areia, Bonfim, Alecrim and Pueblado Disilena) were identified, the stages, materials and processes of the production as well as the proximity relations between the rockets, the commercialization of the fires June to other Sergipe municipalities to states such as Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and Bahia. Although production has modernized in some respects, with the insertion of some machines and equipment, the essence of the tradition continues, since the manufacture of fireworks and fire boats indicates that the traditional and modern modes coexist. It was observed that the rockets are looking forward to some changes in terms of compliance with the deadlines for payment of their fires, the construction of larger sheds by the municipal government and participation in the organization of the rules of fire competitions that occur annually during the June cycle. For the local population and the rockets, the production of fires and the June festivities in Estância conform a cultural landscape.
