In Oklahoma, the dates and times when fireworks may be used are set by local ordinance, which may further restrict or ban discharge. Licensed retailers may sell consumer fireworks year-round; the former seasonal sale windows (June 15 to July 6 and December 15 to January 2) were repealed by Senate Bill 1948 (the Rocket's Red Glare Act), effective May 20, 2026.
