SB 465 Oklahoma Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Alcoholic beverages; exempting certain organizations from certain number of licenses issued each year.

SB 465 would remove an annual limit of eight charitable alcohol event licenses for colleges and universities in Oklahoma, allowing these institutions to host more fundraising events involving alcohol without restriction. Other charitable organizations would continue to face the same limits: eight event licenses and four auction licenses per year. The bill also clarifies that economic development groups can host alcohol events using a licensed caterer without a special license, provided the event isn't primarily for fundraising.
