As part of the Oklahoma City Convention Center Emergency Action Plan, all guests should be aware of the emergency evacuation routes in the event of a fire of any other emergency situations at the OKCCC. As with any emergency, it’s important that everyone stays calm. Do not run during any emergency drills or an actual emergency evacuation. We shall treat any emergency situations as real until an all clear has been given by the OKCCC Management team. In the event of an evacuation of the Oklahoma City Convention Center, the rally point for guests will be at Scissortail Park. (Map is provided below). This is directly across Robinson Street from the main front lobby entrances. In emergencies other than fire, tornado and earthquake, elevators may be used by people with mobility impairments. Know where your emergency Assembly Points and Evacuation Areas are located, and the Evacuation Routes you should follow to reach them. DO not stand in roadways as emergency responders need clear access to buildings. The Oklahoma City Convention Center has a Command Center that is in operation for 24 hours a day during the week. The Command Center serves as the communication base for all security related issues including emergency response, building access, security dispatch and camera monitoring. The Command Center can be reached at 405-431-7202 for non-emergencies or after hour access. In case of an emergency, please dial 911 and then notify the Command Center to help best facilitate the emergency response. EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN
Weather – The Oklahoma City Convention Center Security Department monitors weather routinely and updates staff on all weather notifications. Tornado Warnings – In the case that a tornado warning is issued for the area, a notification will go out to Show Management. Oklahoma City has a robust tornado siren system which is audible inside the Convention Center. Should a shelter in place notification be issued, all event programming will be stopped, and guests will be instructed to use first floor interior hallways, stairwells, restrooms and in the case of a large crowd, exhibit halls will be used. Lobby areas and meeting rooms cannot be used as shelter areas due to the windows. The Oklahoma City Convention Center Emergency Response team will notify show management when the shelter in place is lifted, and security will check all potential shelter areas in order to notify guests that the emergency is clear. Fire Alarm Response – In case of a fire alarm, all guests and staff will need to evacuate the building via stairwells and exit doors. Oklahoma City Convention Center staff will assist with the evacuation while the Oklahoma City Convention Center Emergency Response team will work with show management on all emergency related communication including issuing an all-clear to returning to the building. The main muster point for show management and guests will be the main stage area of Scissortail Park.
