Every summer in Oklahoma, there is one place that transforms into a paradise for fireworks fans, Fourth of July families, backyard pyrotechnic enthusiasts, and road trippers searching for the biggest and loudest celebrations of the season…The Castle of Muskogee is the GO TO place for fireworks and attracts fireworks enthusiasts from a four state area.
That calendar placement could create one of the busiest Independence Day travel weekends in years. Extended holiday travel often means bigger fireworks purchases, family reunions, lake weekends, and large backyard celebrations.
Especially this year, The Castle’s famous fireworks marketplace is expected to be bigger than ever.
For decades, The Castle has become a summertime tradition across eastern Oklahoma. Long before the first backyard sparkler is lit on Independence Day, thousands of visitors begin making the drive to Muskogee to stock up on everything from kid-friendly fountains to massive aerial artillery shells and finale packs designed to light up entire neighborhoods.

The Castle of Muskogee is a Value News and Green Country Tourism Premier Place.
For many families, going to The Castle for fireworks has become as much a Fourth of July tradition as cookouts, lake trips, and American flags waving from pickup trucks. It’s more than a fireworks stand. Beyond their 36,000 square feet of massive selection, you’ll enjoy indoor air-conditioned shopping, soft drinks and libations, paved parking, and covered pick-up area.
According to Matt Hiller, The Castle of Muskogee co-owner, you can expect to find hundreds of special 250th Sesquicentennial themed fireworks, wearables, and accessories. You’ll find fireworks in all your favorite categories. "We have built a reputation for carrying both crowd favorites and hard-to-find specialty fireworks that serious enthusiasts look for every year,” said Matt.
“We guarantee all our fireworks to light. We want you to be safe, meaning if you purchase a firework from us that doesn’t light - we recommend you set it aside and return it to us for a replacement or full refund,” Matt expressed.
An added benefit is that you can remove the doubt about your product selection because many of their products have a barcode on the product boxes to scan with your phone that will give you an immediate preview of the fireworks in action. Additionally, we personally hand-assembled all of our assortment packs which contain all product favorites and not packed with paper fillers. You always get what you pay for at The Castle of Muskogee,” said Matt Hiller.
The Castle of Muskogee is located at 3400 Fern Mountain Road, off Highway 69 between Interstate 40 and the Muskogee Turnpike. Fireworks will be on sale June 13th through July 5th from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Their special 20% Off Discount Pricing Day is July 5th. Matt also said that with every $100.00 purchase, customers will receive a free ticket to their Halloween Festival held in October.
The Castle inspects fireworks through the American Fireworks Standards Laboratory before they leave China to assure your safety. Fireworks are inspected again by the Consumer Product Safety Commission once they get to the USA.
