This fireworks finale is one of our absolute favorite parts about an Allen summer! 🎆

If you’ve been to Allen USA before, you know the fireworks finale is spectacular! And after 30 years, Allen still has the biggest fireworks show in all Collin County, and one of the largest in all North Texas!

Get ready for 25 minutes of nonstop color, lights and a sky-high show at this year's H-E-B Allen USA presented by Credit Union of Texas.

This summer includes:
✨ More than 9,000 pounds of fireworks
✨ Bursts soaring up to 400 feet in the air
✨ A breathtaking 250-foot-wide rainbow of color across the night sky

For many Texans, this finale is more than a fireworks show. It’s a family tradition, a summer highlight, and an unforgettable moment together.

Don’t miss it!
