Wave Concerts 2026

Perfect size, central location, and varied artists. The Wave has quickly become one of my favorite music venues though it also hosts an assortment of other activities and events.

Ease of access from downtown eateries and pubs. Good views of the stage. Rated 4 of 5 stars because the venue says they are ADA accessible ♿, but the gravel surface is not friendly to wheelchairs, and the latrine set-up of port-a-potties is not ADA friendly. There could be other restrooms on site, but I could not get around due to the uneven gravel

A magnificent concert venue of downtown Wichita, at 2nd and Santa Fe. WAVE has the perfect setup for outdoor shows and events when the weather is on the city’s side. There’s tons of space to chill or wonder around and enjoy the show for general admission concert goers, and also has an inviting horseshoe upper level patio surrounding the far outside of the stage for special seating tickets. The stage is impressive in size, and looks and sounds fantastic about anywhere you go. My last experience was for Dropkick Murphys with The Interrupters and Jesse Ahern. Such an amazing show on the type of mesmerizing night of weather, vibe, and music that makes this place so special. I recommend that everyone go catch a show here whenever possible.

Our school booked the venue for our high school prom. The staff were easy to work with and were quick to reply to all questions. We ran into some severe weather issues, and were not able to hold prom at the venue. The staff continued to work with us and were kind the entire time. I can not say enough good things about our experience with the staff. I highly recommend them, and hope to work with them again in the future.

Love this place! Only have portable toilets so go before you go. The balcony is very calm and relaxing but does cost more. We tried to go up there and didn't realize it was extra. Opps! All staff is very friendly and chill. They are literally there to make sure everyone has a good time.
