Stephen Jenkinsa month agoWonderful experience. Lots of history, the plane tour itself as well as the second level that has more info both in actual parts, displays, and videos. Strongly recommend this place to add to your visit when in Wichita. However, check Doc's schedule online to make sure the plane is in town since they have events all over the country throughout the year. The people were great. Very friendly, cordial, and knowledgeable. During my visit they had mechanics working on one of the engines, very cool. The Doc facility was fantastic as well.
Wyatt Johnston8 months agoOne of the most impactful museums in the country related to Aviation and military. Showcasing the extraordinary might of the United States production powerhouse in the 1940s that made the creation of so many complicated and enormous for the time aircraft. The incredibly beautiful restoration of Doc itself is a sight to behold. The phenomenal volunteers and donors behind the movement who value history and this war changing aircraft are the heart of America. There are only two functional B-29 aircraft left in the world, the people of this museum fight against difficult odds to keep Doc in the air and work diligently so generations may continue to see history in real life.
Roba month agoThis was the highlight of my trip to Wichita! I saw DOC at Oshkosh, now I got to climb in the cockpit, amazing aircraft!! They have a gift shop and historic information and displays!

Brian Wirta month agoB-29 Doc Hangar, Education & Visitors Center is one of the most unique and memorable event venues in Wichita, combining aviation history, large-scale industrial space, and a true Kansas landmark atmosphere into an unforgettable setting for weddings, corporate events, galas, and private celebrations. From a professional DJ, Photo Booth, and dance floor rental perspective, this venue creates an experience that immediately stands out from traditional banquet halls or hotel ballrooms. The restored aircraft hangar environment, historic aviation displays, and presence of the iconic B-29 Doc aircraft give events a dramatic visual backdrop that guests remember long after the night ends. One of the biggest strengths of the B-29 Doc Hangar is its scale and flexibility. The open hangar layout allows plenty of room for large guest counts, custom lighting, DJ production, Photo Booth setups, staging, and full dance floor installations. The industrial atmosphere pairs especially well with uplighting and event production, allowing the entire space to transform from museum-style elegance into a high-energy celebration environment. From an entertainment standpoint, the venue works extremely well for weddings and corporate events that want a balance of sophistication and excitement. The spacious layout gives DJs the ability to create strong sound coverage while still maintaining comfortable guest flow between dining, social spaces, exhibits, and dancing areas. Photo Booth experiences also perform exceptionally well in this setting because the aircraft displays and aviation backdrop naturally encourage guest interaction and memorable photography throughout the event. It’s one of those venues where the environment itself becomes part of the entertainment. Another major advantage is the venue’s connection to Wichita’s aviation history. Hosting an event at the B-29 Doc Hangar gives guests a uniquely local experience while still feeling upscale, immersive, and visually impressive. Overall, B-29 Doc Hangar is a top Wichita venue for weddings, corporate events, galas, DJ entertainment, Photo Booth experiences, and dance floor rentals, especially for clients wanting a large-scale, aviation-inspired atmosphere with strong visual impact and unforgettable event energy.
