### About Farmers Public Market

 The OKC Farmers Public Market is a historic indoor market and event hall in downtown Oklahoma City (311 S. Klein Ave). Built in 1928 on the former Delmar Gardens amusement park site, it’s a landmark Spanish Colonial–style building (buff stucco, terra-cotta trim) designed by John J. Harden . The two-story, roughly 34–40,000 sq ft structure originally housed produce stalls on the first floor and an auditorium above . Today it serves as a local food hub and public events venue, listed on the National Register of Historic Places (unique as an event space on OKC’s registry) . Its vintage architecture (high wooden beams and party-light strung hall) and open layout give it a unique “rustic-chic” character. Locals prize it both as a Saturday farmers market and a community center – a one-of-a-kind landmark where Oklahoma’s agricultural heritage meets contemporary culture .

### Events and Programming

 Farmers Public Market hosts a wide range of events year-round. Each Saturday a lively farmers market runs 9 AM–2 PM (first hour for seniors), featuring local produce, meats, dairy, baked goods, honey, crafts and more . Beyond groceries, the Market has become a popular concert and events venue. Promoters bring in regional and national acts (from EDM and hip-hop DJs to tribute bands) to play its roomy main hall. Notable past performances include electronic artists like Liquid Stranger and Riot Ten, as well as bigger names (DMX performed here in 2019) . It also hosts recurring festivals (the twice-yearly “405Fest” indoor music and artisan fair has 50+ vendors, live bands and even a fashion show ), roller-derby bouts with Twister City Derby, trade shows, community events, and weddings. Concert ticket prices vary by show, often starting around $20–$30 for local acts and rising for headliners (some big-name DJs sell for $50+). Smaller competitions or private events are common too – the space is frequently booked for wedding receptions, corporate parties and fundraisers. (In fact owners Burt and Jody McAnally mark 2022 as their 20th year of running the Market as an event center .)

### Tickets and Booking

 Tickets for public events are typically sold through authorized retailers or the event promoter (not directly at the Market’s office). Most concerts and festivals go on sale months ahead; popular shows often sell out quickly. It’s best to buy early from official outlets (Fan clubs or mailing lists for club-style events may offer presales). If a concert isn’t sold out, tickets may still be available at the door (often sales start 1–2 hours before showtime), but there’s no guarantee – award-office or resale tickets should be avoided. Ticket prices generally range from budget to mid-tier depending on the act. The Farmers Market does not have a permanent box office window like a theater – check the venue’s website or social media for event calendars and ticket links. For those hosting a private event, in-house event coordinators can handle ticketing policies; for the public shows, expect standard tiered pricing (e.g. general admission vs. a limited number of “VIP” package seats when offered).

### Seating and Layout

 This venue is largely an open-plan hall. For concerts and public events, most space is general-admission (GA) standing room: capacity is roughly 500 standing or 300 with seating . During gigs the stage is set at one end of the hall. There’s a wide floor and a bit of perimeter space for chairs, so sightlines are usually good no matter where you stand. Some events bring in folding chairs or bleachers (especially non-concert events) but there are no fixed orchestra seats. For seated events like dinners or ceremonies, the hall is arranged with tables and banquet seating. Performers have private green rooms and backstage areas available , but the audience area is essentially an industrial barn-like space. Acoustically it’s quite lively – speakers can fill the hall well. The high ceiling and string-light ambience give it a fun vibe. For best views at concerts, people tend to gather near the front and center of the stage, but even the back rows are not too far from the action (the space is relatively shallow). There’s often some raised platform or balcony at one end (left side) which can be used for sound/lighting / tech. A small VIP section with bar-height tables is sometimes cordoned off near the back. In short, it’s not a stadium with multiple levels of seating – just one big floor with events adding portable chairs or tables as needed.

### Getting There and Parking

 Farmers Public Market is at 311 S. Klein Avenue in downtown OKC (73108). While not far from the Central Business District, the surrounding area can be busy. On-street parking is available in the neighborhood, but it fills up fast during big events. The venue does offer an adjacent parking lot (complimentary for guests when space is available) . Otherwise paid parking garages and lots are nearby – look for long-term lots a block or two away, or use pre-paid parking apps. Rideshares (Uber/Lyft) can drop off at the main entrance on S. Klein; taxis will typically pull up on nearby streets. Public transit: The OKC Streetcar and several EMBARK city bus routes run within walking distance. The free downtown streetcar has stops a few blocks north (for example near vibrant Bricktown at Reno/Walker), and buses (Routes 014, 020, etc.) serve the nearby loop. For drivers, the easiest approach is via I-40 (exit Portland Ave. north) or the merged Broadway/Robinson. Walking from Bricktown or the Bricktown Brewery area takes about 10–15 minutes. (Tip: during morning farmers market each Saturday, arrive early as seats and parking go fast. For evening shows, be aware downtown street traffic after events – plan an Uber or early bus if weather is bad.)

### Inside the Venue

 Visitors enter through the large main doors into one open hall. In non-market mode there will be security to check bags – typical bag policy (no illegal items, weapons, or outside alcohol). Inside, the concrete floor can feel cool underfoot and the open roofed “fan” structure at the sides lets in some breeze. The hall is decorated with hanging string lights and lanterns (gives it a festive feel ). Ambient noise from crowds and music tends to carry; this is a lively space. There is a permanent bar setup (with seating) along one wall for concerts and events, plus occasionally pop-up concession or food vendors. For Saturday markets, permanent stalls sell coffee, pastries and local produce. Restrooms (daytime and event hours) are located off the main hall, and are clean and wheelchair-accessible. Coat racks or check may be offered for large events, but it’s best to travel light. There is no full kitchen open to guests (catering trucks or food trucks often handle event snacks). Wi-Fi is not generally provided for patrons, so plan for limited connectivity. Merchandise tables can be set up near the lobby or edges, as seen at festivals. Overall the atmosphere is relaxed and historic – bartenders and staff are friendly (veteran manager “Marlena” was praised by wedding clients ), and the crowd is a mix of locals. If you’re seeing a show, the lighting will typically dim and “party” lights focus on the stage. At market Saturdays, expect bustling stalls under the sunlit rafters. Note: on Saturdays the building’s first floor is open to shoppers around the produce stands – concerts on other days fill that same space with portable stage rig.

### Nearby Amenities

 The Farmers Public Market sits just southwest of downtown, so a variety of amenities are close by. Within a 5–10 minute walk are several downtown hotels – for example, the iconic Skirvin Hilton on Robinson Ave or the Renaissance Hotel in Bricktown. Bricktown (east of the venue) is only a mile away via Reno Ave., offering casual pre-show dining (Bricktown Brewery, Rock Bottom Grill, crab houses and more). Immediately adjacent is the \*\*Farmers Market District\*\*: this includes the Delmar Gardens Food Truck Park (ten+ food trucks, yard games, a covered pavilion ) plus several popular bars and restaurants. The district even contains a craft brewery and cocktail lounge – Rewind Pub (with arcade games along with craft beer) is steps away . For quick bites, the Park is usually open all day with trucks serving tacos, BBQ, Asian noodle bowls, etc. A short drive north (2-3 miles) brings you to Automobile Alley/Midtown, where top-rated spots like Ludivine and Wedge Pizzerium are located. If arriving early, nearby spots like Elemental Coffee or local BBQ joints make great pre-event stops. Late night options: downtown alt-bars, Denny’s or fast food are scattered along NW 23rd or the fairgrounds. Cleveland County Spo0kies bike-share has a station a block away if you prefer cycling; ample Lyft/Uber coverage makes evening trips easy too. In summary, whether you want upscale cooking or a quick grill, the vicinity has plenty – just allow extra time if venturing out before shows (traffic and parking fill up quickly before concerts).

### What Makes This Venue Special

 This Market stands out not just for its events but for its deep roots in OKC culture. The Spanish Revival auditorium has seen Hollywood legends of country and jazz – Hank Williams Sr., Count Basie and Bob Wills all performed here . Its architecture and original “fan” sheds are reminders of its origins: built to house flood of farmers once competing on city streets . Today it is one of very few WPA-era market halls still alive, giving it a storied vibe. The backstory is rich: it’s built on the site of Delmar Gardens (the old amusement park with ferris wheels, zoos and dance halls) . Locals say you can feel the legacy in the wooden floors and lantern-lit rafters. Artists and performers love its character – as one reviewer put it, “time seems to stand still while buzzing with modern energy” . Likewise, entrepreneurs love that it anchors the growing Farmers Market District (a nexus of local food culture) . In practice, this means both a superb backdrop for photos (for weddings or influencers) and an authentic, lived-in feel for every visit. It’s a reminder of OKC’s placemaking: a century-old public market reborn as a cutting-edge urban venue. The intimacy (500 cap) also makes shows feel personal compared to cavernous arenas. For a visitor, it feels like “the coolest old building you ever stumbled into” – equally at home selling fresh corn or blasting dubstep.

### Visitor Tips and Information

 - \*\*Accessibility\*\*: The main hall is ground-level and wheelchair-rollable. Restrooms are accessible. However, note there are no escalators to a second level, so access is effectively one-floor. If needed, ask staff for assistance at entrances. - \*\*What to Bring\*\*: For concerts/festivals, bring ID (for 18+ events and bar), cash/card for merchandise or food trucks, and ear protection if you get sensitive to sound. A portable phone charger can help – cell service is usually OK but may be busy during events. Layer up a light jacket for cooler nights (the south-exposed doors can let in a breeze once opened). If attending the farmers market, it’s wise to bring shopping bags or coolers (vendors may have only limited bags). - \*\*What Not to Bring\*\*: Outside food/drinks and alcoholic beverages are not allowed inside events. Large backpacks or professional camera gear (DSLR with big lens) may be restricted by security – smaller point-and-shoot cameras and phones are normally fine. Pets, drones or weapons of any kind are strictly prohibited. - \*\*Tickets\*\*: Always buy from official sources (venue or promoter). Scrutinize emails for phishing or counterfeit tickets. Popular shows don’t have guaranteed door tickets – consider joining the artist’s fan club or local mailing list for presale codes. - \*\*Seating and View\*\*: There’s no assigned seating – it’s mostly standing-room. If you prefer to stay out of the crowd, get there early to claim spots near the back or sides. Taller people can stand just inside the end door (it’s a quick step up) to see above heads. For seated events or banquets, tables/chairs are set on the main floor – aisle seating is tight at capacity. - \*\*Market Saturdays\*\*: Arrive by 10 AM for best selection. The crowd picks up quickly and top vendors sell out. Most vendors accept credit cards these days, but bringing cash (and smaller bills) can save time and let you tip sellers. Bring a backpack or wagon if you plan to haul produce. Dress casually (jeans or shorts) and wear comfy shoes. - \*\*Dress Code\*\*: There’s no formal dress code. Concerts and markets see anything from boots and band tees to sundresses. Just avoid high heels on the concrete floor (unless sitting with an event). For weddings or galas, hosts usually specify attire (often cocktail or semi-formal). - \*\*Age & Noise\*\*: Many music events are 16+ or 18+; family shows occasionally happen (check event details). Children under 6 often get in free at the market. Bring earplugs for kids at loud shows. - \*\*Photos/Social\*\*: Feel free to take photos or selfies in the building – it’s very “Instagrammable” with its vintage decor . Tag your posts (though avoid direct venue handles in text). - \*\*Weather Preparedness\*\*: The hall is covered, so rain won’t cancel an event. However, the outdoor truck park does not have heating, so bring a hoodie if it’s chilly. In summer the concrete is air-conditioned by industrial fans, but it still gets warm with a crowd – hydrate often. - \*\*At the Door\*\*: Plan to wait in line for entry, especially when both a day market and an evening show happen on the same Saturday. Typically doors open 30–60 minutes before events. Bring your printed e-ticket or have it ready on your phone – phone scanners are used. - \*\*Rideshare\*\*: Late-night rideshares are usually plentiful downtown. If leaving very late, cross to a well-lit street corner off Klein (for safety). On busy nights, it may take 5–10 minutes to get a car. - \*\*Emergency\*\*: The venue has security on-site. In case of medical need, alert staff – there is first-aid at large events. Fire exits are clearly marked.

#### Is there a charge to attend the farmers market or the concerts?

Admission to the Saturday market is **free** – it’s essentially a public market open to all for shopping. For concerts, sports or special events, tickets are required per the specific event promoter. Concert prices vary (local shows might start ~$20; bigger acts $40+). Generally there’s no additional venue fee beyond the ticket price. Entry procedures just follow what your ticket indicates.

#### How can I buy tickets for a concert or event at this venue?

Event tickets are sold through the event’s official channels (usually online via ticket outlets or sometimes box office). The Farmers Public Market itself does not have a permanent box office; most tickets will be available via authorized websites or by calling the promoter. Watch the Market’s social media or local event calendars for announcements. For last-minute tickets, there may be box-office window sales if the show isn’t sold out, but it’s safer to buy in advance. Never purchase from street scalpers or unverified sellers.

#### What is the seating layout and capacity of the venue?

The Market’s main hall is essentially one large room. For events the total capacity is about **500 people standing** (or **300 seated**) . It’s mostly general-admission: for concerts and parties people stand or sit on folding chairs. Occasionally tables/chairs are set up for banquets or meetings. There’s no fixed balcony for public seating. If you need a chair, arrive early for front or side tables. The open layout means views are generally unobstructed almost anywhere on the floor.

#### Where do I park and what are parking fees?

Parking options include an on-site lot and street parking . The venue provides a parking lot (complimentary for event guests when space is available). Otherwise you can park at nearby city lots or garages (many charge hourly rates of around $5–$10). Metered street parking is free in some blocks on weekends, but pay attention to signs. For heavy event nights, consider ride-share or a short walk from Bricktown, as lots fill up quickly.

#### Is the venue wheelchair accessible? What about restrooms?

Yes. The first-floor event hall is on ground level with wide doorways, making it wheelchair-friendly. The building has accessible restrooms. (The second level is not generally open to the public.) During events, staff can assist if needed—just ask. Sidewalks around the venue have curb cuts, and a few handicap parking spots are near the entrance. There is no elevator required for the main hall.

#### What are the venue’s policies on bags, photography, and prohibited items?

Policies may vary by event, but generally large bags and backpacks are discouraged for security. Small purses or camera bags are fine, but expect a quick screening. Phones and point-and-shoot cameras are allowed, but professional cameras or video equipment usually require a press pass. No outside alcohol or glass containers. Smoking (including vaping) inside the hall is not allowed. Pets are only allowed if a service animal. Always check the specific event’s notice (many outdoor vendor tents or private events have a posted policy). In short: just bring what you need and nothing you shouldn’t.

#### What food and drink options are on site?

The Market itself doesn’t have a full in-house kitchen for the public, but vendors often set up inside during the Saturday market. At concerts or events, the bar is open serving beer, wine and cocktails. Additionally, the adjacent *Delmar Gardens Food Park* (right next door in the same complex) has rotating food trucks (tacos, barbecue, Asian cuisine, etc.) . So for pre- or post-show dining you can grab a bite at the trucks outside or walk a block to one of the Market District’s pubs or cafes (Rewind Pub is very close ). Bottled water and snacks are typically sold at the bar or vendors during concerts. During the morning market you’ll see coffee, sweets and fresh donuts among the booths.

#### Is there a coat check or storage available?

For large ticketed events (concerts, weddings) they often offer coat check or secure storage for jackets/personal items; the cost is usually nominal (e.g. a couple of dollars). It’s not guaranteed on every event, so if you’re unsure, call ahead. During the open farmers market, coats can just be kept at your table or booth area (the hall is indoors and climate-controlled by large fans/heaters, so you may not need a coat once inside).

#### Are children allowed at events, and is there an age limit?

Family-friendly events (fairs, daytime markets) have no age restrictions. Children are welcome at the Saturday market (it’s very kid-friendly). Most evening concerts have age limits (often 16+ or 18+) due to alcohol service and content; these show listings always note the age policy. If a show is 18+ (or 21+), minors will need an adult. It’s safe to assume that nightclub-style music events are not suitable for very young kids. Always double-check on the specific event listing before bringing a child.

#### What is the historical significance of this building?

This Market is historically significant as Oklahoma’s premier public market since 1928 . It cleared up a downtown bootleg farmers issue by providing a central market building (plus the iconic surrounding “fan” sheds) . It’s on the National Register of Historic Places and retains its original style. In its early years it even housed a grocery, candy store, bakery and an upstairs auditorium where legends like Hank Williams Sr., Count Basie and Bob Wills performed . The building and its story are part of OKC lore – it began on the Delmar Gardens amusement park site, and it symbolizes the growth of Oklahoma agriculture into the modern era.

#### Does the Market have an official website or social media?

Yes. The official site (okcfarmersmarket.com) has a schedule of markets and venue details . It’s best for general info and contact forms. Many events are also announced on Facebook or Instagram pages (search “OKC Farmers Public Market District”). However, do not purchase tickets through social media links – always use verified seller sites. The City of Oklahoma tourism site (TravelOK) also lists hours and address but without event details. For real-time updates, local event calendars (Downtown OKC, OK Gazette) are useful.

#### Is there public transit access to the venue?

Yes. Oklahoma City’s EMBARK buses stop nearby (for example the 014 Crosstown route stops along Reno Ave., a short walk north). The free downtown Streetcar (S1 line) has a station at Walker & Reno, about 0.3 miles from the Market. You can board the streetcar and ride it free if you have a boarding pass or day-pass (or $1 fee). So a convenient approach is to hop off at the Cox Convention Center stop and walk south for a few blocks. Public transit late at night runs on a reduced schedule; plan accordingly. Overall, parking is the easiest way, but transit/bike-share options exist.
