Where each level sits

What a Weekend Night Looks Like

Friday and Saturday, the restaurant turns into the best dance floor in McCurtain County.

  1. 8:00 PMWe seat our last dinner tables. Not a hard cutoff — just when it usually happens.
  2. 9:00 PMThe restaurant closes sharp. Security filters the crowd and checks credentials — if you don't have a show ticket yet, you'll need one to stay in the building.
  3. 9:30 PMTables and chairs move out of the way and the dance floor opens.
  4. 10:00 PMLive music kicks off. If there's no band that night, our DJ starts spinning.
  5. 1:30 AMLast call.
  6. 2:00 AMOur double swinging doors lock up tight.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tickets are available at the door on show nights from 7–10pm. You can also buy in advance online, right here on our site — that's the surest way to know you're getting in, since shows can sell out before the night.

We DO NOT TOLERATE underage consumption of alcohol at the Hochatown Saloon. Guests under 21 must purchase a special Under-21 Ticket and be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. Under 21 is not allowed after shows — you will be asked to leave once the show ends. If no Under-21 Tickets are available for purchase, the event is 21+ only.

A QR code, and we scan it at the door. Your confirmation email has a QR code in it and a link to your live ticket. Open that link and every ticket in the order gets its own code, so a group can split up and each person walks in on their own phone instead of everyone waiting on whoever bought them — the live code refreshes every 30 seconds. Rather not rely on signal? Print the email and bring it; the code in it scans the same. We don't mail tickets and there's nothing to collect at the venue. Groups of 15 or more who want to skip the door should contact us in advance.

Our events happen rain or shine. Purchasing your ticket takes that spot away from someone else who wants to attend, so tickets are non-refundable — unless you added the Refundable Ticket option at checkout, which lets you cancel for any reason at all, no questions asked. If we cancel a show and don't reschedule it, you get everything back automatically, without having to ask. The full terms are on our Ticket Terms page, and there's a refund request form on the site.

We reserve the right to remove any guest at any time for any reason we deem unacceptable. We do not condone or allow drug use on our property, including marijuana and THC-related items. Firearms, knives, and other weapons are strictly prohibited. Guest safety is one of our highest priorities.

Booking a party of 15 or more?

Our events team can get your group in without waiting at the door. Available Monday–Friday, 10am–6pm.
