June 27 – 28 – 29

In Bixby, OK, the biggest event of the summer is the annual GREEN CORN FESTIVAL. Held in June in downtown Bixby, it is a true “community celebration” dating back to the area’s agricultural heritage. The 2024 Green Corn Festival is our 50th year to be hosted by the Bixby Optimist Club. The Festival kicks off on Thursday evening with free roasted ears, a parade, and an opening Ceremony in Charley Young Park. The Park is surrounded by food and craft booths and is the site of the festival’s live music, games, and contests. Just a hop and skip down East Dawes is the carnival. On Saturday afternoon, enjoy the Green Corn Talent Show for students 6 to 18 years old, hosted in Soul II Sole. You can also play some Bingo in Crossroads Church, across the street from the park. For more information, see the schedule and links below.

Located at Charley Young Event Park in Bixby
