Tishomingo Event Center & Pavilion
Chickasaw Nation of Oklahoma
UNLEASHING SPECTACULAR EXPERIENCES
BWA Architects provided full architectural and consultant coordination services for the Tishomingo Event Center, a 57,000 square foot large-scale public assembly facility designed to support concerts, festivals, and major community events. The scope included programming, conceptual design, and full construction phase services, with BWA retaining and coordinating all consultants including civil, structural, MEP, audio, video, technology, and landscape design. In addition to the Event Center, BWA designed three freestanding open-air pavilions (totaling 37,500 square feet) at separate locations across the Chickasaw Nation Capitol campus.
The facility includes fixed stadium seating for approximately 2,500 occupants, a state-of-the-art audio and video system with a dedicated production control room, three VIP green room suites, and a large public lobby supported by ample restroom facilities. Due to an accelerated delivery schedule, the project was delivered from concept through substantial completion in approximately 14 months. Early site and foundation packages were issued while the building design was still underway to maintain the aggressive timeline. BWA worked closely with the Construction Manager throughout design and construction, resulting in an on-time and within-budget delivery aligned with the Nation’s Fall Festival.
