Wichita Fathers Day events and deals

Here are some of our favorite activities and things to do for Fathers Day 2019 in or near Wichita:

Friday

1. Start celebrating a little early with Dad in the great outdoors! If your family likes camping, Father’s Day would be a great time to do it. Kids camp free at participating KOA campgrounds on Fathers Day weekend.

Saturday

2. The big annual Stearman Field Fly-In is on Saturday, June 15 in Benton. It’s free to go and and watch the planes take off and land throughout the day. When you get hungry, the Bar & Grill will be serving food and drinks inside and outside.

3. If Dad loves kids movies, he’ll love the FREE movie at the CapFed Amphitheater in Andover on Saturday. 😀 They’re showing The Little Mermaid. But honestly, a daddy-daughter experience that puts an adoring smile on his girls’ faces? That’s a great gift for fathers right there!

4. The Wicked Brew Tour kicks off this Saturday in Wichita. Just pick up a passport and get it stamped at participating local brewery locations. Augustino Brewing is offering $2 off flights this weekend for participants. And on Sunday, dads get $3 rotator flights all day.
