We first found…read morethis attraction near Halloween about 11 years ago..I just googled their activity in years -though looks like this is their 19th season. Wow. But as for my family and I, we have been visiting for 11 years.. during the years of Covid did slow our haunt commitment visits so.... I say that if you go, you'll definitely be enchanted! Such an old term, but I know exactly how the hysteria hits when you are unaware of their scare tactics... it is a scary attraction, but you will get your monies worth. The ride is not a hayride, but be honest how many are in your group. You will have close encounters to the woods at night and whatever box of goodies they have waiting for you. The other scary offer they have is a haunted house walkthrough. I miss the good ole' days at Bells Amusement Park's "Phantasmagoria", so maybe this will lift your spirits for dark rides and hysterical times. I suggest buy your tickets in advance online. They did have a very smooth operation last year when gathering riders for the Dark Ride. I can't wait for Halloween this year and another visit to Psycho Path!! Dress for the weather, be prepared! They do have a small food vendor. Have a great time y'all!! *note we travel over an hour to visit, worth every bit of tire tread on that turnpike!

We really enjoy the "scarriage" through the forest, you go through several scenes and many jump scares. There are a couple animatronics that pop out as well! I highly reccomend coming here during the Halloween season, the waiting and anticipation pays off and it's worth the money!

I love that you can get dressed up if you want an excuse for a fancy date night, or come in jeans and a sweater if you want to be cozy and get lost in the music. Highly recommend if you're local or visiting and want an amazing arts experience!

Now 2018 was their first year to hold this festival. There is a learning curve for 1st and 2nd year…read moreof any festival. This one is no diffrent. It was fun, food was good. Line for beverages was a 30 minute wait at minimum up to an hour in line, but I believe they will adjust for that next year. Irish clubs (including Irish Setter Club, how cute those guys were!!) had booths, travel agents with trip to Ireland, a few fun venders. One amazing vender was an artist who made sulpture from Limestone. How amazing he was! Man he was out of sight!!

The Drunkard & The Olio is the historic and longest-running play in the U.S. It started in 1953 and…read morehas never stopped. Performances are every week, on Saturdays at 7:30pm. It's an interactive play with lots of audience engagement. You can purchase tickets online at the Tulsa Spotlight Theater website. Adult tickets are $28 and children are $15. It's a long show. Doors open at 7pm. The show starts at 7:15 with a singalong of old songs. Everyone has the lyrics in the program to join in. Then, the Olio are the openers. They rotate between dancers, musicians, singers, jugglers, magicians, or even comedians. When I went, there was a magician that was amazing. The main event is an old-fashioned melodrama. During intermission, they serve concessions, beer, coffee, soft drinks and even tomatoes to toss at the villain. The building itself is and feels historic. It's easy to notice on Riverside due to its white and tall facade. They do private events, making it a unique venue option. A group of very dedicated volunteers makes all the magic happen. This is a must-experience Tulsa tradition!

As a kid, this holiday truly helped me grasp the concept of death and taught me not to be afraid of it, focusing instead on the celebration of life and the good memories of those that go before us. It's amazing to me to be able to find this here in Tulsa! Living Arts has been hosting this festival for over 20 years! Admission is $5 (cash only) and children 12 and under get in for free. The lineup for the festival is truly remarkable. It is an opportunity to showcase local, regional and international artistic talent. The most recent addition was Jorge Rojas performing his "Tortilla Oracle" - think Hispanic version of reading tea leaves (how awesome is that?!). Inside the gallery, you can walk around admiring the 50+ altars that were set up, the reading of the Calaveras, get your face painted to look like a catrina, get churros and champurrado, as well as witnessing the blessing of the altars. Outside, you can get yummy food, buy unique merchandise from the vendors and enjoy the wide array of music, dance, and other performers like: Interactive Puppet Theater with Flying Heart Theatre, Eleganza Musical: Latin ballads, Miguel y Los Coyotes: Caribbean Jazz & Latin fusion, Sol Azteca: Aunthentic Mexican dance, the Skeleton Parade, Braxus Santana: Santana Tribute Band, Tulsa Latin Style: Latin Jazz & Salsa, EkuBembe: Latin drummers & Latin fusion with Fire Dancers, Ballet Folklórico Tonátiuh, Hot Club: Gypsy & Flamenco, Mariachi Tulsa: Traditional & popular Mexican music and more! There are also great activities for kids, like sugar skull painting, loteria, and more! My favorite thing is to admire the murals. Huge shout-out to KSQ Design for allowing to extend the Mural Corridor onto the North side of their building! The artists are just amazing and it is wonderful to be able to recognize them for their work.

An incredible cultural experience that brings together people across Tulsa…read more Dia de Los Muertos is a combination of culture, art and celebration with a low entry fee ($5 donation) and a lot to see. The murals on the wall are repainted each year and celebrate death, those who have died and our interaction with death. While this could seem very morbid, Living Arts does a great job of making this event a celebration with food, drinks and plenty of opportunity to check out altars submitted by people from across town celebrating the lives of those lost in the last year. There are lots of booths to buy awesome handmade wares, local entertainment and a blessing of the altars with a priest and dancers moving through the altars. There are lots of kid friendly activities but this is also super fun for adults. I would highly recommend for anyone interested in cultural events and learning more about our city and the people in it!

Located in the heart of downtown Tulsa, ONEOK field is a wonderful place to host events at. From…read moremeet & greets and corporate meetings to birthday parties and work development events, the staff is wonderful to work with and they'll cater to your specific needs. They have five different event rooms, three meeting rooms and group hospitality areas to choose from. The conference center is great for presentations and it has all the equipment (projector, screen, microphone, etc.) to load a PowerPoint, video or slideshow. All you need to bring is a laptop. The Coors Light Refinery Deck is probably my favorite. It has an awesome view of the field. The Suite Level bar is also neat since they have a full service bar with indoor and outdoor seating. When it comes to their catering service, I have always been super impressed with all the options they have and how flexible they are. Again, they always customize to your needs and they have various menus (breakfast, lunch, dinner, etc.). I usually go with their hors d'oeuvres menu since they have a wide array of options for everyone. Their bbq bacon wrapped shrimp is awesome as well as their chicken wings.

After 25 years of life in Los Angeles and being a die-hard Dodgers fan, I relocate to Tulsa…read more Fortunately, Tulsa has baseball and Oneok Field is a local treasure. I'll compare my trip to this stadium with a comparable visit to the Dodgers. The distance to the venue is about the same. In L.A. It would take an hour. Here it took about 15 minutes. Parking at Dodger Stadium is around $15. Here, it's $5 if you park in a lot but if you arrive early, street parking is free. A ticket in the section behind home plate runs for $140 for the Dodgers. Tonight, I'm watching the Drillers from the fourth row. I paid $15. Club seats are only $35. Food is more expensive than most places but still cheaper than Los Angeles. I even bought a Drillers' jersey and still spent less than my last trip to Chavez Ravine. Of course, the Drillers do lose sometimes. That's one thing the price of a ticket cannot guarantee.

There is other stuff, like a barbecue dinner and Native American performers, but we got tickets for "Oklahoma" only. It was so fun! I had forgot about a lot of the plot (Ado Annie is my girl!). The music was wonderful of course, and there are real horses, loud guns! The lead actors were terrific, the rest of the cast filled in nicely, but wasn't spectacular. My favorite part was the very end when the cast has the audience join in singing "Oklahoma" while horses prance the stage with the Oklahoman and American flags and guns shoot at the end. "We know we belong to the land...." The setting is what makes this show amazing. The stars up above, the cicadas chirping in the trees..... Bring bug spray, and be prepared for a late night if you have little ones, the show didn't end until after 11, and we still had a 2 hour drive back to OKC.
