Popular free summer concert series starts its five-week run this weekend — but at a new venue
One of Wichita’s most popular annual outdoor events — KEYN’s Summer Concert Series — is about to return and starts its five-week run on Friday.
The concerts will happen every Friday night until Aug. 13 from 8 to 10 p.m. outside at Hartman Arena, 8151 N. Hartman Arena Drive in Park City. That’s a new venue from the past. The last time the concert series happened, in 2019, concerts were at the Wichita WaterWalk.
Each concert will feature a well-known local band plus food trucks people can enjoy while they watch. (Gates will open at 6 p.m. each week.)
Attendees should bring lawn chairs as well as money to buy food and beverages, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, which will be sold on site. They can bring coolers but not glass bottles or outside alcohol. Coolers may be inspected at the gate.
Admission is free.
