Oklahoma is widely known for its tornadoes in the spring but there’s also something else we are kind of famous for this time of year  – the annual Azalea Festival in Muskogee. This bucket-worthy festival is one of the top spring events in the country and features 40-acres of gorgeous azaleas, tulips, and wisteria. It’s held during the whole month of April at Honor Heights Park and is free of charge to attend.

The 2022 Azalea Festival is going on now until the end of April at Honor Heights Park in Muskogee. The park is open daily and is free of charge to enter.
