Nestled in the heart of the Cimarron Valley along Highway 33, Cushing was established in the tradition of early oil boom days and is known as the "Pipeline Crossroads of the World." You are invited to take a self-guided tour through our Pipeline and Storage Tank Farm. While the oil industry continues to flourish here, there are many events each year that bring thousands of people to Cushing to visit and to do business.

Cushing's Barbecue and Blues Festival is known for the most unique, if not the world's largest, smoker. Festivities include games, top notch blues music from throughout the state and barbecue by Cushing's Pipeline Companies. This is a KCBS sanctioned event and is proclaimed by the Governor of Oklahoma to be a State Sanctioned Championship Cook-Off. Mark your calendars for the first Saturday in June for some of the state's best blues and barbecue!

Take a trip back in time with a visit to the Cimarron Valley Railroad Museum and see many various railroad artifacts and memorabilia. Visit our historic Downtown; it's an Antique Shopper's delight! Cushing Community Theatre, the "star" of Downtown, provides several entertaining productions throughout the year. The Cimarron Valley Cruisers Rod Run showcases more than 200 automobiles every year. The award-winning PRCA Cushing Community Rodeo draws hundreds of onlookers to watch action-packed bull riding, roping, barrel racing, and other exciting events. Festival in the Park is a celebration of fine arts, and more excitement is provided by our annual Chili Cook-Off and 5K Run for the Mums. Come and join us for a day of fun and entertainment for the whole family. In addition, come see Cushing's newest outdoor playground, the Cushing Aquatic Center. It's fun for all ages. Cushing is also home to an 18-hole golf course and Country Club.
