Azura Amphitheater concert venue in Bonner Springs, Kansas

Why it matters

Azura Amphitheater opened in 1984 as Sandstone and has been Kansas City’s big western summer shed through several name changes. The sprawling lawn and open Kansas setting give large tours a completely different atmosphere from the downtown arena.

Getting there

Azura Amphitheater in Bonner Springs is a drive-first venue west of Kansas City. Arrive before the main traffic surge, follow the event parking route and remember that most of the crowd will be leaving on the same small set of roads after the show.

Bag policy

Before travelling to Azura Amphitheater, open its official A–Z, FAQ or guest guide and confirm the concert's bag dimensions. A small essentials-only setup is the safest choice when an event notice is more restrictive.

Local tips

Bonner Springs is a driving trip, and the lots are part of the experience. Arrive early enough to avoid the last traffic surge and keep water and sun exposure in mind on hot days. Post-show exits take time because the crowd feeds back onto a small number of roads.
