Nightlife

Bricktown, a renovated warehouse district a stone's throw east of downtown, is the city's premier nightlife district. Its focal point is a mile-long, landscaped canal, with Water Taxi boat tours (tel. 405/234-8294; www.watertaxi.com) offering the most entertaining introduction to the area's history. Alongside the canal are waterfront restaurants and larger-than-life-size bronze statues commemorating the 1889 Land Run; a total of 45 figures will grace the waterway by Oklahoma's 2007 state centennial.

A good watering hole is Bricktown Brewery, 1 N. Oklahoma Ave. (tel. 405/232-2739; www.bricktownbrewery.com), a microbrewery famous for its barbecued meats and live music on weekends. Down the street is Citywalk, 70 N. Oklahoma (tel. 405/232-9255; www.citybrickwalk.com), which offers seven clubs and bars under one roof, Friday through Sunday nights. On Western Avenue, a good choice for live music on weekends is VZD's, 4200 N. Western Ave. (tel. 405/524-4203; www.vzds.com), which offers rock, country, reggae, and other kinds of music in addition to salads, soups, and burgers. For families, Rodeo Opry, in Stockyards City at Agnew & Exchange Avenue (tel. 405/297-9773; www.ohfo.org), showcases up-and-coming country-and-western entertainers every Saturday evening.
