Century II

I’ve been to Century II many times. Typically I go to enjoy an magical performance from the Wichita Symphony Orchestra. But just recently I went to see Mythbusters Live. Thats one of the coolest things about this venue, the wide variety of entertainment that they host. It was built in the late 60s so it doesn’t have that classic theater look, but it’s still impressive.
Century II also has a massive convention hall that is regularly filled with a variety of events including wedding, comic, wine, and outdoor conventions. There is a bar outside of the theater with drinks and snacks available. I don’t typically get anything but it’s cool to have the option in such a classy setting. I’m always tempted to order some scotch on the rocks when I go to the symphony.

The 2015 Midwest Wine Fest was amazing! This venue was perfect for it. The setup was excellent. There were hundreds of wineries showcasing their wines and many restaurants displaying high quality, full flavored, generous portions of their signature dishes.
This was one of the best wine fest I’ve ever been to! Once again this was the best venue possible for an even like this. I’m glad I got to be a part of this.
Cheers!

Large area, plenty of parking, but the building is in need of some modernization…

Visited the Century II for The Nutcracker ballet. Huge place! Had to park in the Back 40, but that’s cause we arrived a little late. I recommend you get your tix emailed or sent to you. Waiting a will call was a little long for some but not for me! I got lucky in the back of the line when one of the attendants waved me over and gave me my tickets! I met my man and we headed into the concert hall.
I had been to the ballet in Tulsa and noticed that the seating in Wichita was a little outdated. The carpet seats are somewhat worn and there was a weird odor around us! Not sure if it was the fabric or someone’s bad perfume! It didn’t distract too much though.
The ballet was wonderful and we enjoyed the start to our holiday!
