The Oklahoma City Convention & Visitors Bureau will now be known as Visit Oklahoma City. Visit Oklahoma City President Zac Craig said the change is based on industry trends and research. Craig is also hoping the change will reduce confusion that his staff operates the Oklahoma City Convention Center. The Visit Oklahoma City moniker isn’t unfamiliar as it’s been used on the organization’s website and social media platforms for several years. Now that name will be moved fully across all audiences. “This name transition unifies the brand across leisure, CVB TRANSITIONS TO VISIT OKLAHOMA CITY • American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials - April 10-14 - Oklahoma City Convention Center • 2023 Better Barrel Racing World Finals - April 20-23 - Oklahoma State Fairgrounds • Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon Health & Fitness Expo - April 28-29 - Oklahoma City Convention Center • US Rowing – Central Youth Rowing Championships - May 5-7 - Oklahoma River • Oklahoma Regional Volleyball Championships - May 6-7 - Oklahoma State Fairgrounds • USA Gymnastics – Men’s and Women’s Development Program National Championships - May 9-14 - Oklahoma City Convention Center • Big 12 Softball Championship - May 11-13 - USA Hall of Fame Stadium UPCOMING CONVENTIONS
