Roller Coasters in Oklahoma

Unlike Ohio, there isn’t much in the way of roller coasters in Oklahoma. But there are a few! I really enjoyed Oklahoma City once on my way through before, let’s take a look at what they have in the way of roller coasters. As always, make sure to check current prices and hours before you visit!

Click on each coaster’s name below for a video of the ride! Ride all the roller coasters in Oklahoma from home!

Frontier City

Frontier City in Oklahoma City has the most roller coasters of any park in Oklahoma, with five. They’ve got the Schwarzkopf Silver Bullet, looping Diamondback, wooden Wildcat, inverted Steel Lasso, and kiddie Frankie’s Mine Train. Other rides include a solid selection of spinning flat rides, a seated zip line, a train, log flume and rapids ride, and six rides for smaller kids. There’s even a couple of waterpark attractions in the way back. It doesn’t look like a very big park, tucked into a corner by the highway.

Daily admission is $37-80, I guess depending on the day of your visit. It’s hard to tell in the after-season. (Always double-check prices online! There are often deals.) Parking is an extra $10.

Kiddie Park

Kiddie Park in Bartlesville has an ancient and homemade-looking kiddie roller coaster called the Little Fire Ball. It looks like they’ve got a new one on the way too, a Dragon Coaster to open in 2024. Otherwise, it’s hard to tell what attractions they have. It’s exclusively for smaller kids, it looks like.

As best as I can tell, each ride is one ticket and tickets are only 75 cents each. And on a couple of rides, parents can ride free with their kid. It’s set in a city park on a river and it looks like there is a parking lot next door.

Tulsa’s Incredible Pizza Company

Tulsa’s Incredible Pizza Company has an indoor arcade and ride area with one of those spinning figure-8 coasters called, appropriately, Spinning Coaster. Otherwise, they have go-karts, glow golf, a scrambler, laser tag, a trampoline park, an XD theater, bumper cars, a spinning “lost in space” ride, and mini-bowling.

Each attraction is priced separately. The Spinning Coaster is $7.50 by itself, or there are any number of eat-and-play deals online.

Incredible Pizza Company – Warr Acres

There’s another Incredible Pizza Company location in Oklahoma City with basically the same setup as above. One roller coaster, also called the Spinning Coaster, with an arcade and an array of other attractions. This location has laser tag, a scrambler, bumper cars, mini-bowling, go-karts, glow golf, and a spinning tub ride called La Bamba.

Each ride is priced separately, and again, the Spinning Coaster is $7.50 alone, though there are combo deals available.

Water Parks in Oklahoma

There are a few water parks in Oklahoma. Most notably a Six Flags Hurricane Harbor in Oklahoma City, and Paradise Beach in Tulsa, though there’s an indoor water park in Clinton, over an hour west of Oklahoma City. The rest are small city-run parks as per usual.

• While Frontier City (which is a Six Flags park) has a couple of water park attractions – a 3-slide tower and a family splash tower – there is a separate Hurricane Harbor location in Oklahoma City. Hurricane Harbor has 19 slides, 2 kids’ areas, a wave pool, a lazy river, and some “gangplanks” where you can jump off into the water below. Admission seems to be around $80, though I suspect it’s lower online. Plan to pay for parking as well – maybe around $20? The site doesn’t say right now.
• Paradise Beach in Tulsa doesn’t list its attractions on their website, so by doing some sleuthing on Google Maps, it looks like they have 8 slides, a kids’ pool, a lazy river, a wave pool, and one more pool with graduating depths, a floating(?) platform and two straight slides into the deep end. I think. It sounds like admission is around $30 and there is a charge for parking, but the link for more information isn’t active. I hope they run their water park better than their website!

• The Water Zoo Indoor Water Park wins the award for my favorite water park name! (Though I expect it’s pretty crowded, making it feel like a real zoo.) Inside, they have 4 slides, 3 more kids’ slides and a splash tower, even smaller toddler slides, a wave pool, a lazy river, and an activity pool, all under a retractable roof if it’s nice enough outside. One slide is gamified so you can try again for a better score. Admission is $49 and under, no matter what date or time slot you choose.
• Pauls Valley Water Park has 3 slides, a splash tower, and a lazy river, plus a small lap pool with a diving board. Admission is $8 and under.

• River Country Water Park in Muskogee features 2 slides, a lazy river, a kids’ play area, a net crossing, and a sand volleyball court. Admission is $8 and under.
• The Jellystone campground at Keystone Lake in Mannford has 2 big slides and a huge inflatables obstacles course. It’s mainly for campers but you canget a day pass for $20 and under.
• Pelican Bay Aquatic Center in Edmond has 2 slides, a splash tower and splash pad, lap lanes, and many a hot tub/lazy river kinda thing. It’s hard to tell when they don’t say on their website. Admission is $9 and under.

• Shawnee Splash Water Park run by the city of Shawnee looks like it has 2 slides, a splash tower, a spray area, diving boards, and a climbing wall. Daily admission is $7 and under.
• The Crystal Beach Water Park in Woodward is an aquatic center with 2 slides, a splash tower, and a pool. Admission is $5 and under.
• The city of Miami’s Municipal Pool has 2 smaller slides and some spray features. Admission is $4 and under.
• There a Sun N Fun in Ponca City but it’s really hard to tell what’s here. There’s at least 2 slides, a lazy river, some splash elements, and maybe a bumper boat pool. Prices seem to be around $20.
