Bring blankets and lawn chairs and enjoy the FREE Wichita Ballet in the Park again this year!
The Wichita Ballet will perform The Little Mermaid at various parks in and around Wichita this spring and fall.
This is a wonderful experience and very family-friendly! The performances only last about 45 minutes and are usually followed by a meet and greet with company dancers.
You have several Ballet in the Park performances from which to choose:
- Thursday, September 6 at 6:30 p.m. in the Wichita Art Museum’s Art Garden
- Friday, September 7 at 6 p.m. in Riverside Park, 720 Nims. N
- Saturday, September 8 at 11 a.m. in Wilson Park, 701 S. Summit Street, Ark City
- Saturday, September 8 from 2-2:45 p.m. at the Island Park Shelter House, 200 Main St. in Winfield
- Saturday, September 8 at 6 p.m. at Seller’s Park, 501 N. Harvey in Wellington
- Sunday, September 9 at 2 p.m. in Maize City Park, 401 S. Khedive
- Sunday, September 9 at 6 p.m. in the band shell at Athletic Park in Newton
You’ll want to bring your blankets and lawn chairs (and costumes and tutus!), and arrive early to get a good spot. Food trucks may be on site for some Ballet in the Park performances.
Ballet in the Park is a FREE event for all ages! Share it with your friends!

It would be great of there was more than one performance for each town
There is a map of Mulvane shown, will it be there also? Thank you.
Also there are two times listed for Maize, 2 and 3 pm
The Mulvane performance was earlier this summer, and the map seems to just be hanging on even though that event is over. (I’ll see if we can get that to go away somehow. Sorry!)
The Maize performance is from 2 p.m. – 3 p.m. Just one performance, beginning at 2 p.m.!
