Distances and times from Google Maps directions, September 2026. Give yourself extra time on show nights.
BOK Center schedule
Concerts, Tulsa Oilers hockey, college basketball and touring shows. This list refreshes itself from Ticketmaster every time the page loads, so what you see is what's on sale. Rows in the past fade out on their own.
Seeded from bokcenter.com on September 4, 2026 (46 events listed through April 2027, most of them Oilers home games). With a Ticketmaster API key in place this block is replaced by the live feed.
The Cove: 2,500 seats, no bad ones by the resort's account, and a casino floor for after
River Spirit's theater, formerly Paradise Cove, books touring country, rock, comedy and tribute acts plus MMA and boxing nights, and the resort says there is no bad seat in the house. Tickets sell through Etix or the Players Club box office. Margaritaville Tulsa has live music Friday and Saturday and the 5 o'Clock Somewhere Bar seven nights a week, and the 483-room hotel, Ruth's Chris, Gridiron Sportsbar and Topgolf Swing Suites are all under one roof.
Ten minutes to the show, thirty seconds to your own bed.
River Spirit's hotel has 483 rooms and a checkout time. From Click 4 you are 5.4 miles from The Cove and 5.1 from BOK Center, with the truck parked at your own site, the dog fed, and no checkout time in the morning. Full hookups mean the coffee maker and the heater both run when you get home at midnight.
Check availabilityDowntown Tulsa by district, with the places locals actually go
Downtown is compact: the Arts District, Blue Dome and Greenwood sit within about a mile of each other, north and east of BOK Center. Park once and walk; the whole loop is a few blocks.

Cain's Ballroom, Tulsa Theater and Guthrie Green
Cain's Ballroom at 423 N Main books touring acts year-round; Soundpony Lounge, a few doors down at 409 N Main, is the pre-show bar. Tulsa Theater on Reconciliation Way books theater-size touring shows. Guthrie Green, a few blocks east on Reconciliation Way, runs free concerts, movies and Food Truck Wednesdays: Digable Planets play a free show September 25 and Iron & Wine on October 25, 2026. The Woody Guthrie Center (Wed–Sun 10–6, adults $12) and Bob Dylan Center, both nearby, share a $22 dual ticket.

Blue Dome District: the bar crawl blocks
Between 1st and 3rd Streets east of Elgin: McNellie's Irish pub (409 E 1st, 4.6 stars on nearly 4,000 reviews), Fassler Hall's beer garden, Elgin Park's pizza and sports bar, Dilly Diner for the late breakfast, Arnie's Bar, and cocktail rooms Valkyrie and St. Vitus. Juniper at 324 E 3rd is the fine-dining option. All of it is within walking distance of BOK Center.

Greenwood: ONEOK Field and Greenwood Rising
ONEOK Field, home of the Tulsa Drillers (Dodgers Double-A) since 2010 and FC Tulsa since 2015, sits in the historic Greenwood District. Greenwood Rising, the Black Wall Street history center at 23 N Greenwood Ave, is open Tuesday through Sunday 10 to 7 (adults $15, youth $8, six and under free) and deserves a slow two hours, not a walk-through. Handle this district with the respect it asks for; it is a memorial as much as a neighborhood.
Eight downtown tables worth the drive across the river
Picked for a show night: close to the venues, open late enough, and rated by thousands of Tulsans. Ratings and addresses are from Google Maps in September 2026; call or book ahead on concert nights.
Juniper
Farm-to-table on 3rd Street, east of the arena. The pre-show reservation when the night is an occasion.
PRHYME Downtown Steakhouse
Prime cuts and a serious wine list on N Main, on the way to Cain's. Budget $100 and up a head.
McNellie's Public House
The Blue Dome anchor: hundreds of beers, a proper burger and a big post-game crowd.
Sisserou's
Caribbean plates and rum drinks a few blocks north of the arena on Boulder Avenue.
Dilly Diner
All-day breakfast and milkshakes for the morning after a late one. Expect a wait on weekends.
Fassler Hall
German beer hall with house sausages and a big patio. Loud, cheerful and right on the walk back from a Drillers game.
Valkyrie
A craft-cocktail bar in the Blue Dome District. Small, dim, no TVs, drinks built to order. Maestro on 2nd Street (4.8★) is the other one.
Mother Road Market
Oklahoma's Route 66 food hall on 11th Street: a dozen counters under one roof, patio and lawn games, easy with kids and a mixed group.
Also good: Bull in the Alley (4.6★, alley-entrance fine dining), Welltown Brewing on Archer (4.7★), The Vault on Cincinnati (4.4★, mid-century supper club), Cellar Dweller on 7th (4.6★) and Soundpony next to Cain's (4.6★). Ratings and counts from Google Maps, September 4, 2026.
Things Tulsans know about a night downtown
Buy parking before you leave the rig
BOK Center sells event parking in advance through ParkWhiz. Buy a spot on your phone at the campsite and you skip the circling. Rideshare pickups are on 1st Street between Denver and Cheyenne, with Lyft as the official partner.
Clear bag or no bag
BOK Center admits one clear bag per person up to 12 by 6 by 12 inches, or a one-gallon zip bag, plus one small purse or clutch no larger than 5 by 8. Leave the backpack in the truck. Check your ticket for the event's own rules on cameras and outside items.
Leave the rig, take the tow vehicle
Downtown parking is garages and surface lots sized for cars. Stay hooked up at your site and drive the truck or car in. If you are traveling without one, rideshare from the park to the arena is about a ten-minute trip and the drop zone is on 1st Street at the arena.
Free nights on the Green
Guthrie Green in the Arts District runs free concerts, outdoor movies, fitness classes and Food Truck Wednesdays. In fall 2026 that includes Digable Planets (September 25) and Iron & Wine (October 25). Bring a chair, buy dinner from a truck, and you have a downtown night for the price of gas.
Hockey season is the value play
The Tulsa Oilers play ECHL hockey at BOK Center from the October 17 home opener through early April, with many weekend home dates. Same arena, same downtown, at minor-league prices. Check the live schedule above; Oilers games show up in it automatically.
Route 66 turns 100 this year
The Mother Road was established on November 11, 1926, and Tulsa's centennial events run through the year. Wilderado's Route 66 Centennial show at Cain's on November 11 sold out; the 11th Street corridor with Mother Road Market and the neon signs is the easy self-guided version.
