Rhi Tavarez8 months agoHad a great pop up here. The space was well lit and air conditioning was adequate. Would definitely recommend! We appreciate the cleaning crew & concession people! Great job!
Jennifer Graham5 months agoI've been a vendor at the Wichita Bridal Expo over the last several years at Century II. It's a great convention center even though it's older and needs some renovations done. I've also been there as a customer to see theater shows, orchestra concerts, and comedians on tour. The seats are pretty comfortable and there's good views from the floor or balcony. It would be great if Wichita could secure some funding to remodel and update the convention center. The bathrooms on the convention center areas are very out of date and don't smell the greatest. The ceiling of the center needs repairs, lights replaced, and it could use a new coat of paint. Unfortunately that's on our city to help with funding for those needs. Overall as a returning vendor there twice a year I have zero issues over the years. The staff works hard to keep the floors clean, and are always friendly. The parking around is now all paid which is obnoxious but again, gotta blame that mess on our City Council Members & Mayor. They really should invest in building a large parking garage specifically for Century II.
Carolyn Kaiser5 months agoWe're here for the RV show. The atmosphere and people are incredibly nice. What a great place to to present your company and meet potential customers.
Butch Moore8 months agoWent for time travelers expo and enjoyed everything that had to offer. Wonderful array of vendors
Jana Halla year agoBought season tickets and just watched Waitress and it was absolutely amazing!! Jenna the character was so good and her voice gave me goosebumps multiple times! If you want to keep it local and experience a Broadway theatre experience, you must become ticketholders! Its so worth it!
