In Oklahoma today, visitors can explore where the collective histories of 39 unique First American Nations come to life. The First Americans Museum is a celebration of cultural diversity, history, and contributions of the indigenous people who inhabited this land long before the United States came into existence. It's important to acknowledge and honor the First American Nations that called this land home, including the Apache, Caddo, Tonkawa, Wichita, Comanche, Kiowa, Osage, Quapaw, Muscogee, and Seminole. These nations have a historical relationship with this region and have contributed to the rich tapestry of Oklahoma's cultural heritage.
The Oklahoma Regatta Festival in the Boathouse District on the Oklahoma River is the premier fall event in Oklahoma City and a four-day celebration of all things rowing, kayaking, and dragon boating. The family festival also features a children's area, fireworks, and fantastic food from some of the city's best restaurants. And for those who like a drink with our festivities, there's a beer and wine garden, too. Plus, you'll get a front-row seat for all the racing action.
