Automobile Alley Lights on Broadway

About this adventure

Historic Automobile Alley glows with one of the most stunning architectural light installations in the Southwest during Lights on Broadway. Eight continuous blocks of historic 1920s automotive showrooms and brick commercial buildings along North Broadway Avenue are draped in vertical curtains of colorful LED lights, using more than 400,000 bulbs. During select Saturday open house events, the district closes to vehicle traffic, welcoming families with strolling carolers, live brass bands, complimentary hot cider, sidewalk balloon artists, and visits with Santa Claus. Kids will love peeking into creative storefront holiday displays, riding the brightly decorated OKC Streetcar, and soaking in the vibrant urban holiday cheer. Family Experience & Accessibility: • Stroller Accessibility: Wide, well-paved urban sidewalks with smooth curb ramps run along the entire Broadway corridor, making strolling exceptionally easy. • Nursing & Rest Spots: Family-friendly cafes and local bakeries throughout the district offer clean restrooms, high chairs, and comfortable seating. • Age Suitability: Wonderful for all age groups; young children will enjoy street performers while older kids appreciate the shopping and photography backdrops. • Sensory Tips: The vertical lights are static rather than blinking; Saturday open house nights feature lively street energy, while Sunday twilights offer a peaceful walk.
