The Myriad Gardens , our 17-acre public park in downtown, is home to beautiful plants from all over the world, plus seasonal water features, Mo’s Carousel, mixed media art and outdoor fun for all ages. Year-round programming includes a wide variety of local and regional musical acts, yoga, Zumba and a wide variety of workshops and tours. Inside the Crystal Bridge, which is at the center of the garden, is a reflecting pool, plant collections, terraces and a waterfall feature. Wheeler Park , on the southern bank of the Oklahoma River, is known for its iconic Ferris wheel, but is also a great place to hang out, have a picnic, kick back in a hammock or grab some food from one of the frequent food trucks that show up. Will Rogers Park & Gardens is a year-round favorite for gardeners and horticulturalists alike. Located in one of the city’s oldest parks, the 30-acre garden houses a formal rose garden, conservatory, color garden with seasonal blossoms, arboretum and exhibition center.
