December 1-9, 2021

Join us as we kick off the 2021 Buy Bixby season. The Buy Bixby program highlights the Bixby business community, while featuring a variety of merchants, products and services. The increase in sales tax collections helps the City of Bixby provide necessary services to its residents and merchants. The Buy Bixby program is one of the state's most successful holiday shopping programs! It is designed to build awareness of, and excitement about, Bixby businesses. The Buy Bixby program provides people within our community and throughout the region with greater exposure to what Bixby has to offer. It helps keep more of our local citizens' shopping dollars in our community while drawing in new shoppers from outside of our community. The most exciting incentive of this program is cash and prizes during the most wonderful time of the year! We will be giving away cash prizes and more! Register to win at the event. Must be over 18 to win.
