The Alamo Fireworks story began in the 1930s when the Cannon family first sold fireworks door-to-door, driven by a simple love for celebration and community spirit. Officially incorporated in 1962, Alamo Fireworks has grown to become Texas’ oldest independent fireworks company, proudly serving generations of families across the Lone Star State and beyond.
Today, with over 160 retail locations and the most indoor stores in Texas, we continue to honor the dreams of Mary Cannon and Harvey Girdley, whose partnership and passion turned a small dream into a booming legacy. Every firework we sell carries the heart of a family tradition, the spark of innovation, and the joy of making memories that last forever.
