Iowa Fireworks Farm Store Tour!

We had a chance to tour the Iowa Fireworks Farm in New Virginia, Iowa (About 30 minutes South of Des Moines)! This store has a great selection of brands and products available and in total is just under 6000 square feet! Plenty of fireworks in stock as of recording this video. Also, surprise cameo from 319PYROS: / @319pyros

Awesome that you do these tour videos. It was from the stateline fireworks video in NH I got a look around before ever setting foot in the store. In the few years since the video was made it hasn't changed much at all in there. :) I recommend it to those who want to avoid the buy one get one free scam.

[@chrispolk93]

Nice shop. Prices make me feel truly blessed to have the best priced shop in the country. Rocket fireworks in missouri. Looks like good supply in iowa.

[@JoelRobinsonPyrotechnics]

Every time I'm in that area they are closed! I don't get down that way during the actual season unfortunately

[@godrulztheearth]

we set off "infraction" by great grizzly last year and it was awesome. one of the best finale cakes i have ever seen. small box so a bit deceptive as to how incredible that one was going to be. i noticed this place in the video had it.

[@JoelRobinsonPyrotechnics]

Oh yeah that's a great cake!

[@BBQRando]

Wooooooooo Joel!!!!!

[@PyroMan]

Nice items!

[@neko8715]

that "Born on the Bayou" at 6:42 by Texas outlaw is my favorite 200g cake. It has big breaks for the price. I highly recommend it!

[@JoelRobinsonPyrotechnics]

I'll have to keep that in mind!

[@fastfireworks3177]

I got to tell you the prices on the fireworks were actually not too bad but the fuse prices are absolutely ridiculous everywhere. We used to pay $5 a roll for this stuff. Great video and great hookup with 319 pyros. That was awesome 💥👍👍

[@JoelRobinsonPyrotechnics]

I hear you there! I remember someone back in May commenting on a place that had fuse for $10 and these days it's hard to find anywhere under $15.

[@TwistedMexi]

Nice Ignite product placement on the door lol, it's been a great system to me so far!

Great video like always ! fuse prices have gone insane , I Paid $5 for any type of 20 foot fuse in 2020, this year around me I have got it for 7.99 and 9.99 , but 15 for fuse is crazy !! Hoping firework prices stabilize next year or the average Pyro is going to suffer!

[@JoelRobinsonPyrotechnics]

I agree! I'm seeing around $15 at most stores these days.

Got 3 of them. Great hummer cake.

[@lukewebbpaintball9658]

You should come on down to elite fireworks supercenter in Houston Texas they have a crazy amount of shells they have their own product line and I think they’re the only certified cobra retailer

[@JoelRobinsonPyrotechnics]

I'll have to keep that in mind in case I'm down that way!

[@RacesForTheChannel]

Haha I was just at Elite firework's on the 25th, the day after that opened for the season. I live up in the woodlands and they are literally the cheapest place around. I been seeing the same 24 packs of 5 inch 60 gram canister shells at the firework's stands for $30-$80 more, and I can believe some of these prices at the stands this year. I won't go near them. They are charging 170 dollars for a 16,000 count roll off firecrackers. I can go to elite and pay 130 or even hop on top American wholesale fireworks and pay $95 for an 18,000 count role. Sadly elite is above and beyond all the competition now and the firework stands are not worth it anymore and I love supporting small mom and pop businesses but not at those prices....

[@jackedup5452]

Seems to be very fair pricing compared to other around the country. For some unique effects, give the Koto shells a shot. You won't be disappointed.💪🏽💪🏽🤙🏽

[@JoelRobinsonPyrotechnics]

Oh yeah? Man, now I wish I would have grabbed them lol

[@SuperApplefan1]

a lot of black cat nice

[@allenpost3616]

Amazing stand I love it! Bet all that will be gone fast as the prices seem fair enough. Are the bison owned by the same people? Thanks for the tour Joel. 👍

Damn, wish I could have joined you and 319PYROS in the store during the walkthrough!!! Great collaboration and in depth video of the firework store as always Joel!! Hopefully you were able to pickup some nice items from the Iowa Fireworks Farm as they got a lot to choose from! I got to ask, what did you think of the prices in this store as I went so early I did not get to see what they had for prices on most items compared to other stores in the area and in the Midwest?

[@JoelRobinsonPyrotechnics]

If I knew you were going early, I would have tried to make it up there when you were there! Maybe we can work something out at another store. Their selection is fantastic. I'm seeing retail prices up just about everywhere, so it's been hard to judge. For the area, they are cheaper or on par. Definitely cheaper than some of the neighboring states minus Missouri (which I feel like is the cheapest state for retail fireworks).

[@BigTPyro]

@@JoelRobinsonPyrotechnics Okay, well maybe I can finally make it out to the Superstore next year or another possible store next year even if they exist next year. lol Hopefully I will see you at Sky Wars again this year and I can discuss more then.

@@JoelRobinsonPyrotechnics me too. I get June 1 to July 8 in the summer and a few weeks in December/New Years. These guys are great and knowledgeable. I think they have the best prices in Iowa. Very comparable to some stores in Missouri. Been there twice, will probably stop in again. Maybe to pick up that new ignite system. 😁

[@Adams-ci7rm]

I’m getting concerned… none of the local tents are posting up this year. And the ones that are up have no product at all. I talked to the guy at jakes fireworks warehouse and he says the containers are on the way. He barely had anything. 😐

[@JoelRobinsonPyrotechnics]

Yeah none of my local tents are popping up either. Several of the local stores are still waiting for inventory, so who knows. That's one of the things with the pricing we are seeing that a lot of people are not quite understanding yet, the shortage and changes to shipping costs have definitely affected pricing and availability. A lot of the wholesalers are already sold out too, which just points to people buying early and the shortage, which is only going to further drive up prices.

[@BigTPyro]

See that's the problem. All of the firework stores/tents that carry one or two brands are either not open this year or only have limited product as not many fireworks have come in for each brand throughout the country. But stores like this one "Iowa Fireworks Farm" which carry many brands can have a fully stocked store as they get 50-100 cases form each brand to fill this giant store. So the best shopping will be done in the firework stores that carry many brands!

[@JoelRobinsonPyrotechnics]

@@BigTPyro We were talking to them about that too because you're absolutely right. Like the classic saying, "don't put all of your eggs in one basket".
