OKLAHOMA CITY, OK — Science Museum Oklahoma is trading in lab coats for cowboy hats during SMO21+: Saddle Up, an adults-only evening where rodeo spirit meets hands-on science on Friday, Aug. 28, 2026, from 7pm – 10pm.
Guests ages 21 and older are invited to round up their friends and experience the museum after hours with Western-inspired activities, themed cocktails, live entertainment, and interactive science experiences designed with a wild western twist.
The five SMO21+ events throughout the year give adults the rare chance to experience the museum like kids again, with the added bonus of cocktails and no field trip chaperones in sight.
“The museum has hosted dinosaurs, robots, and rocket launches, so it only felt right to add a rodeo to the list,” said Sherry Marshall, John E. Kirkpatrick President and CEO of Science Museum Oklahoma. “SMO21+: Saddle Up gives adults permission to play, explore, and try something unexpected, all while enjoying a night out that’s uniquely western-meets-science.”
Tickets for SMO21+: Saddle Up start at $35 for general admission. Guests looking to get a head start on the festivities can upgrade to VIP admission, which includes early entry at 6:30 p.m., a complimentary signature cocktail, and discounted drinks throughout the evening.
Advance purchase is recommended as previous SMO21+ events have sold out.
