The Oklahoma Historical Society and Oklahoma Arts Council will mark the occasion on March 8, 2027, with live music and an invitation to dance in the Capitol rotunda.
All times are local to the venue · America/Chicago
Bob Wills’s Oklahoma story runs through Tulsa: his Texas Playboys had a daily radio program on KVOO and regularly played Cain’s Ballroom. Bob Wills Day brings that history into focus through live music and an invitation to dance at the State Capitol.
The event pairs live performances with dancing as part of the visitor experience. The listing encourages people to bring a dance partner, but does not say a partner is required.
No dance instruction or formal lesson is announced. Visitors looking for a class should not count on one being part of the program.

Wills was a musician, songwriter and bandleader who helped popularize Western Swing during the 1930s and 1940s. Born March 6, 1905, he is being commemorated two days after his birthday.
The Texas Playboys’ daily broadcasts on Tulsa’s KVOO and their regular Cain’s Ballroom appearances connect the commemoration to both radio and live performance in the city. Those are the specific strands of Wills’s career highlighted in the event listing.
