Christmas In The Wichitas, Live Music Celebrations, and More This Weekend

It's the week before Christmas and this weekend's forecast for Oklahoma is looking awfully bright. Since the weather's supposed to be looking so nice, business is likely going to be booming for the weekend.

Instead of soaking up the heat at home, here are weekend events that families and friends can enjoy this weekend in Southwest Oklahoma. While some events are free, others are ticketed and do require some advance plans.
