Oklahoma's Smoking in Public Places Act bans smoking inside most workplaces and within 25 feet of building entrances. Tulsa parks, BOK Center plaza, and several outdoor city venues add tobacco-free policies on top of state rules.
Oklahoma Statute Title 63 Section 1-1521 prohibits smoking in indoor workplaces, restaurants, and public buildings, with limited exceptions. Smoking and vaping are also barred within 25 feet of public-building entrances. Tulsa Parks adopted tobacco-free park policies covering playgrounds, sports fields, and trails. The minimum age to buy tobacco or vapor products is 21 under OK 63-1-229. Bars meeting separate-ventilation rules and cigar lounges can still allow indoor smoking. Tulsa Health Department leads enforcement alongside Tulsa Police.
Smoking or vaping inside a covered Oklahoma workplace, within 25 feet of a public-building entrance, or in a Tulsa tobacco-free park can result in fines for both the smoker and the property operator.
