About OKC's Adventure District:

Oklahoma City's Adventure District is so named because of all the great museums, parks and attractions. Although Bricktown has grown tremendously over the last several years, and the NW Expressway area is a big commercial region of the metro, the Adventure District has been one of OKC's biggest tourist areas for many years.Think of one of the city's entertainment destinations that has been around for several years, and the odds are good it's located in the Adventure District. From Remington Park and Tinseltown USA to the Zoo and the Omniplex, it's still the leading neighborhood for metro attractions.

Oklahoma City's Adventure District includes the area from I-35 west almost to I-235, south to NE 50th and north to NE 63rd. Some would label it stretching as far north as Frontier City, but many of the attractions are on or very near Martin Luther King Blvd.
