Seated in the most densely-populated county of Oklahoma, Tulsa's populations of nearly 400,000 has one of the best nightlife scenes in the state. From ballroom dancing to drag shows to posh, upscale venues, you will find a diverse selection of live entertainment and dance parties in Tulsa.
Dating back to the mid-1920s, Cain's has an old-fashioned dance hall feel with high ceilings and a large dance floor. As the old stomping ground of Bob Willis and his legendary Texas Playboys, this venue is recognized as the birthplace of Western Swing. Today, live acts incorporate not only swing, country and western, but also indie, rock, blues, psychedelic and other styles. Big acts like Reverend Horton Heat and Derek Trucks Band make a point to stop here on tours. You will find few places to lounge and drink in this venue; however, you won't want to miss a step on the funky wooden spring-loaded dance floor at this Tulsa landmark.
