After 10 years at the BOK Center, General manager Jeff Nickler will be leaving at the end of December.

He says he will be taking a new job in Los Angeles. Nickler moved to Tulsa in December of 2008 to help open the BOK Center. He says his proudest accomplishments are convincing U2 to kick off their North American tour in Tulsa, and the 10 for 10 concert series, which celebrated the arena’s tenth anniversary.

Last Week, Pollstar announced their 2018 Year-End Top 200 Arena Venues based on ticket sales and BOK Center finished #23 in the United States and #47 in the world. 

“We are so thankful for the concert promoters and agents who continue to believe in the Tulsa market and we are so fortunate to be in a city that has embraced the venue,” said Nickler.
