Winter Wonderland (Dec. 18-Jan. 3)

Despite the challenges of COVID, Gathering Place will again transform into a Winter Wonderland, but the 2020 event (presented by American Airlines) will have socially spaced zones and surprises to celebrate this holiday season. Wander through the park and experience thousands of twinkling lights illuminating Chapman Adventure Playground, special performances and carolers, as well as some new plans tucked in the park’s sleigh.

The release said the health and safety of Gathering Place guests and staff is the park’s top priority and the park will continue to closely follow the recommendations from the CDC and The City of Tulsa. Said the release: “Thank you to our safety partner, OU Physicians, a part of OU Medicine, for helping us provide safe events for Tulsa.”

“We have treasured our relationship with Gathering Place and are so pleased to be able to help find ways for families to once again safely enjoy events and organized activities there,” Dr. Peter Aran, chief medical officer and associate dean , said. “Of course, we will continue to monitor the situation and will offer updated suggestions as the pandemic continues.”
