Get ready to chart a new course at Science Museum Oklahoma’s latest adults-only event: SMO21+: Pirate’s Cove, happening Saturday, October 25, 2025 from 7:00 to 10:00 p.m.

Leave the kids behind and step into a swashbuckling adventure where science, mystery, and pirate lore collide. Attendees will enjoy a full evening of themed activities, signature cocktails, and exclusive access to the museum after hours. Costumes are encouraged.

Highlights of the night include:
• Map-making with invisible ink
• Message in a bottle and buoyancy challenges
• Mini vortex cannons that fire fog rings
• Ocean trivia (walk the plank, if you dare)
• Gunpowder science demonstrations
• Plus: a secret room and plenty more pirate-style surprises

“SMO21+: Pirate’s Cove is about more than costumes and cocktails! These events remind adults that science is an adventure at every age,” said Sherry Marshall, John E. Kirkpatrick CEO at Science Museum Oklahoma. “By stepping into a world of curiosity and play, our guests rediscover the wonder that fuels discovery and innovation.”
Tickets for SMO21+: Pirate’s Cove are available now starting at $35.00. VIP tickets offer early entry at 6:30 p.m., exclusive access to the VIP lounge, a complimentary signature cocktail, and discounts on drink refills. General admission begins at 7 p.m. Food, alcoholic, and non-alcoholic beverages will be available for purchase throughout the evening.
