Kickin’ It on 66: The Route 66 Centennial Celebration at Scissortail Park
Get ready for the "Main Event" of the century! In this episode of the Only in OK Show, we are diving into the massive Kickin’ It on 66 festival happening May 30, 2026, at Scissortail Park in downtown Oklahoma City.
Oklahoma holds more miles of the historic Mother Road than any other state, and we are celebrating 100 years of the Main Street of America with a sunrise-to-sunset party you can't miss. From retro roller skating to a high-tech drone finale, this is how OKC honors the spirit of the road.

-
Morning Kickoff: Starting the day right at the OKC Farmers Market.

Park Activities: Pedal boats, kayaks, and the Sky Rink roller skating experience.
