Do we say "Sky on fire" or "Sky in fire"?
For example: Today's sunset looks like the sky is on/in fire.
Thank you :)

Since the sky is bigger than the fire, if anything the fire would be in the sky. The only reason it makes sense to say "on fire" here is because that is a set phrase for being aflame.

The correct phrase is "Sky on fire." So, in your example sentence, it would be: "Today's sunset looks like the sky is on fire." This expression is used to vividly describe a colorful and intense sunset where the colors resemble flames, giving the impression that the sky itself is ablaze.
