Curfew Enforcement/Bar Disorders
The Tulsa Police Department will increase enforcement on juvenile curfew violations and bar disorders starting Friday, July 27th. Special enforcement officers will begin increasing police presence in problem bar areas to address crowd disturbances, drunkenness and fights in and around clubs and other businesses that affect safety and perception of safety in the area.
There will be officers working overtime shifts on Friday and Saturday evenings all around the City of Tulsa issuing citations to juveniles out past curfew without proper supervision, as well as increasing patrols around problem bar areas and taking necessary action for those persons violating the law.
Failure to obey curfew hours for children under the age of 18 can result in a citation that is booked to court for the juvenile and their parent, but bar disturbances can lead to a citation or an arrest depending on the violation committed.
Curfew Hours
11:00 p.m. on any Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday
until 6:00 a.m. of the following day; and
12:01 a.m. until 6:00 a.m. on any Saturday or Sunday.

Thank you.
