Get up close and personal with Oklahoma rattlesnakes at the annual Apache Rattlesnake Festival. Attracting thousands of visitors each year, the Apache Rattlesnake Festival allows festival-goers to take a hands-on approach to gathering rattlesnakes, or allows them to remain safely behind glass while viewing these magnificent predators. Feel an adrenaline rush as you participate in a guided snake hunt, or try something new from the snake butcher shop.
A snake pit with live snakes and snake handlers will be set up to the delight of festival-goers. Snack on fried rattlesnake before taking a turn in the snake pit if you dare. Don't miss the festival's open-air flea market, or take the kids over to the carnival area where they can enjoy a wide variety of rides.
