Oklahoma City, OK (May 24, 2022)–The long-awaited 45th Annual Paseo Arts Festival is finally here! Join the community this Memorial Day Weekend, May 28 and May 29 from 10 a.m. - 8 p.m. with live music until 10 p.m., and May 30 from 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. Visitors will enjoy over 100 nationally acclaimed visual artists from as far as California and Ohio, who fill the Historic Paseo Arts District with original artwork: everything from painting, ceramics and photography to woodworking, glass, sculpture and jewelry.

Voted Best Free Entertainment in Oklahoma Gazette’s 2021 Best of OKC, the festival is also famous for its more than 50 performers such as Uncle Zep, longtime legendary band who has supported the Paseo for years. The Oklahoma City top-tier Led Zeppelin Tribute group will headline on the South Stage, Saturday, May 28, at 6:30 p.m. It will be a performance that no one will want to miss.   

Returning this year are craft beers on tap featuring Stella Artois, Karbach Tasty Waves and Golden Road Mango Cart all ice cold and served by the south stage. Karbach Lovestreet, Jukebock and Ranch Water will be in 16 oz cans and of course our staple Budweiser products at all three beverage tents.   

 Shudder at the thought of parking? Get shuttled in style on a Village Deluxe Motorcoach, which will run a continuous route from the free parking lot at First Christian Church at NW 36th & Walker, and drop you off at the north end of the festival at 30th & Dewey. Shuttle hours are 10 a.m. – 10 p.m. May 28 and 29 and from 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. May 30.
