Expo Square Transportation Device Policy

The safety of exhibitors, spectators, volunteers, and staff is a top priority during the ABRA World Championship Show. To help ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone on the grounds, Expo Square has established guidelines regarding the use of motorized personal transportation devices.


If you plan to bring an electric scooter, e-bike, golf cart, hoverboard, one-wheel, or similar device, please review the Expo Square Transportation Device Policy before arriving.


Understanding the Expo Square Transportation Device Policy

Expo Square permits the use of certain motorized personal transportation devices on the grounds, provided they are operated responsibly and safely.


Under the Expo Square Transportation Device Policy, all operators must:

  • Yield to pedestrians at all times

  • Maintain safe speeds and remain in control of their device

  • Follow all posted signage and instructions from Expo Square staff, security personnel, and event management

  • Operate devices in a manner that does not create safety hazards for others


These guidelines are designed to reduce congestion, improve pedestrian safety, and create a more enjoyable environment for everyone attending the event.


Prohibited Activities

The following activities are not permitted under the Expo Square Transportation Device Policy:

  • Reckless operation

  • Racing or competitive riding

  • Performing stunts or tricks

  • Excessive speed

  • Any activity that endangers guests, exhibitors, or staff


Additionally, motorized personal transportation devices are not allowed inside Expo Square buildings unless specifically authorized.


Devices Covered by This Policy

The policy applies to:

  • Electric scooters

  • E-bikes

  • Hoverboards

  • One-wheels

  • Golf carts

  • Other motorized personal transportation devices


Please remember that permission to use a device on the grounds does not exempt operators from following all safety requirements.


Mobility Device Exception

The Expo Square Transportation Device Policy does not apply to:

  • Wheelchairs

  • Mobility scooters

  • Other mobility devices used by individuals with disabilities


These devices remain permitted as necessary accessibility accommodations.


Consequences for Non-Compliance

Expo Square reserves the right to restrict, suspend, or prohibit the use of any device that creates a safety concern or interferes with event operations.


Failure to follow the policy may result in:

  • Removal of the device from use

  • Removal from the property

  • Additional action as determined by Expo Square management


Help Keep the ABRA World Show Safe

Every year, exhibitors and spectators travel from across the country to participate in the ABRA World Championship Show. By following the Expo Square Transportation Device Policy, you help create a safer environment for horses, riders, families, exhibitors, and guests.


Before arriving in Tulsa, please take a moment to review these guidelines and share them with your barn family, trainers, friends, and fellow exhibitors.


Working together helps ensure everyone enjoys a safe, successful, and memorable World Show experience.
