Tulsa Zoo

The Tulsa Zoo offers dozens of indoor and outdoor spaces set among its animal habitats, giving weddings, corporate events, and celebrations a backdrop of exotic animals in full view. Ceremonies and receptions can be held anywhere from lush outdoor patios to indoor event rooms, with the zoo's own team handling setup, teardown, and cleanup. The largest indoor venue, George Kaiser Family Foundation Rajan's, accommodates up to 150 guests, while the Helmerich Discovery Center seats up to 120 and includes a built-in stage, audio system, and projection equipment for corporate meetings and presentations. Outdoors, the Mary K. and John T. Oxley Family Elephant Experience holds up to 350 guests, and seasonal spaces like the Mary K. Chapman Rhino Reserve and Helmerich Sea Lion Cove place guests near the zoo's rhinos and sea lions. A Taste of the Wild provides in-house catering for zoo events, with a chef available to help build a custom menu. The zoo is owned by the City of Tulsa and managed by Tulsa Zoo Management, Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
