OKLAHOMA CITY - If you're looking for a quick trip this holiday season, downtown Oklahoma City has plenty to offer this year.
The annual Downtown in December festivities will include no less than four new attractions, along with returning favorites such as the Devon Ice Rink, Chesapeake Snow Tubing at the Brick and the Automobile Alley Lights on Broadway.
"Not only do we try to make the event bigger and better every year, we always try to expand our schedule of events," said Gentry McKeown, communications coordinator for Downtown Oklahoma City Inc.
Presented by Devon Energy, Downtown in December is a monthlong holiday extravaganza with attractions ranging from zip lines and museum outings to light displays and visits from Santa Claus.
