History

[edit]

Kansas Coliseum was opened in 1977. Two brass plaques (one located on the lower level, by the box office windows and the other up on the main concourse) read:

"Dedicated September 1978, for the promotion of agricultural, educational, and cultural benefits, on behalf of the people of the world, by the citizens of Sedgwick County, the board of the county commissioners, the Kansas State Park and Resources Authority, the Economic Development Administration and the Ozark Regional Commission of the United States Department of Commerce and the Kansas Coliseum Corporation."

It hosted NCAA Men's Basketball tournament first and second-round games in 1994. The Wichita State University basketball teams played the 2002–03 season there while the Shockers' on-campus home, Charles Koch Arena, was undergoing major renovations.

It was the home of the now-defunct Wichita Wings indoor soccer team, who played in the MISL and NPSL between 1979 and 2001. The Kansas Coliseum was the home venue for the Wichita Stealth, Wichita Aviators, and Wichita Wild indoor/arena football teams between 2001 and 2008. It also was home to the Wichita Thunder ice hockey team that played in the Coliseum from 1992 to 2009. The Wichita Thunder now plays in the INTRUST Bank Arena (which is also owned by Sedgwick County and was Operated by SMG (which merged with AEG Facilities to form ASM Global in 2019, with ASM taking over all SMG arenas including ISA)) in downtown Wichita, Kansas.

The last Wichita Thunder hockey game ever played at the Kansas Coliseum was on January 9, 2010, in front of a home crowd of 5,556. The Thunder lost the game 3–1 to the Odessa Jackalopes. Brent Ottmann would be the last Thunder player to score a goal in the building at 2:05 of the 1st period, and Kenny Bernard of Odessa scoring the last goal ever at 19:53 of the 3rd period.

The final event to take place inside the Arena was the RV and Boat show on February 20, 2010. On February 22, 2010, The Britt Brown Arena closed its doors following the opening of the Intrust Bank Arena. The arena ceased hosting events, while the neighboring Kansas Pavilions portion of the complex remained open until late 2016.[3]

On January 10, 2012, the entire Coliseum complex was sold by Sedgwick County to aviation research developer Johnny Stevens for a sum of $1,462,487.12. The Britt Brown Arena was transformed into an aerospace testing facility for the National Institute for Aviation Research of Wichita State University.

from Grokipedia
The Kansas Coliseum was a multi-purpose and convention complex located in , at the intersection of and 85th Street North, serving the Wichita metropolitan area from its opening in 1977 until its closure in 2010. The facility, owned and operated by Sedgwick County, was designed to host national touring shows, agricultural events, and local gatherings, featuring the main Britt Brown Arena with a capacity of approximately 10,000 seats, along with several pavilions totaling over 250,000 square feet for exhibitions and equestrian activities. Over its 33-year lifespan, the Coliseum became a central hub for entertainment in south-central Kansas, attracting major concerts by artists such as , who performed five sold-out shows in 1997—Wichita's largest entertainment event at the time— starting in the 1980s, in 1985, and in 1989, among others. It also served as home to professional sports teams, including the Wichita Wings indoor soccer team and the Wichita Thunder ice hockey team, while hosting rodeos, trade shows, circuses, and community events like the Kansas Sports, Boat & Travel Show. The complex operated as a self-sustaining enterprise fund, generating revenue through rentals, concessions, and ticketing services via its Select-A-Seat system, which extended to regional clients. The Coliseum's closure in February 2010 coincided with the opening of the larger, downtown in Wichita, which offered 15,000 seats and modern amenities funded by a temporary . Post-closure, the site transitioned away from public events; the pavilions hosted occasional agricultural and dog shows until early 2017 but proved unprofitable, leading to their conversion for industrial storage and manufacturing uses. In 2012, Sedgwick County sold the property to local developer Johnny Stevens, who leased portions to Wichita State University's National Institute for Aviation Research for aircraft storage and related activities, transforming parts of the former arena into an informal "." By the mid-2010s, the site had largely shifted to non-entertainment purposes, marking the end of its role as a key cultural and recreational venue in the region.

Overview

Location and Facilities

The Kansas Coliseum was situated at 1279 E 85th St North, 67147, within unincorporated Sedgwick County and approximately 10 miles north of downtown Wichita. The site occupied a rural-suburban setting in the Valley Center area, blending open agricultural landscapes with proximity to urban amenities, and offered convenient access via , with entry from Exit 17 onto 85th Street North. The complex consisted of four main pavilions designed for versatile indoor use until its closure in 2010: the Britt Brown Arena as the central venue, the expansive Sam E. Fulco Pavilion functioning primarily as an exhibition hall, Pavilion II dedicated to agricultural and equestrian activities, and additional smaller meeting spaces integrated throughout the grounds. These structures formed a cohesive multi-purpose facility tailored for events ranging from expositions to shows, with interconnected layouts facilitating efficient flow between areas. Architecturally, the Kansas Coliseum emphasized practical, adaptable indoor spaces, highlighted by the Britt Brown Arena's main floor of approximately 36,500 square feet (146 feet by 250 feet). The overall design prioritized open, column-free interiors in the larger pavilions, such as the 135,000-square-foot Sam E. Fulco Pavilion (300 feet by 450 feet) and the 90,000-square-foot Pavilion II (200 feet by 450 feet), to support large-scale gatherings without obstructions.

Ample was provided across the site, enhancing accessibility for large crowds. Owned and overseen by Sedgwick County, the Kansas Coliseum's day-to-day operations were managed by SMG starting in 2007. These adaptable elements, such as the ice capabilities and flexible seating, were instrumental in supporting professional tenants like the Wichita Thunder ice hockey team.

History

Construction and Opening

The planning for the Kansas Coliseum originated in the early 1970s, as Sedgwick County sought to develop a multi-purpose venue capable of hosting national touring shows, agricultural exhibitions, and other events to enhance the local economy and meet community needs. In April 1975, the Sedgwick County Commission approved the acquisition of a 240-acre site near Interstate 135 and 85th Street North in unincorporated Sedgwick County for the project. A fundraising drive for private contributions began in September 1975, followed by federal approval in December for a total budget comprising $3.9 million in county tax funds, $2 million from the U.S. Economic Development Administration, and $1.1 million from private sources. Construction broke ground on July 9, 1976, under the direction of local general contractor Dondlinger & Sons Construction Co., with a projected cost of $6.2 million and completion targeted for mid-1978, though the facility advanced ahead of schedule. The complex included the main arena, later named the Britt Brown Arena after Harry Britton Brown Jr., a prominent Wichita businessman and former owner of The Wichita Eagle newspaper, in recognition of his civic contributions. The Kansas Coliseum opened in 1977, designed primarily to promote agricultural, educational, and cultural activities while accommodating entertainment events for the Wichita metropolitan area's expanding population, which exceeded 400,000 residents by the decade's end. This launch positioned the venue as a key asset for regional growth, drawing visitors from south-central and supporting through diverse programming.

Operations and Renovations

The Kansas Coliseum was managed by Sedgwick County staff through its Coliseum Administration, which oversaw day-to-day operations including event booking, contract negotiations, sponsorships, and maintenance. Initially operated as an enterprise fund relying on self-generated revenues from rentals, concessions, and ticket fees, the facility employed approximately 41 full-time equivalents (FTEs) in the mid-2000s, covering administration, operations, and pavilions maintenance. Annual budgets hovered around $3 million in expenditures during this period, with revenues of about $2.9–3 million offset by county subsidies that decreased from nearly $1 million in 2004 to under $600,000 by 2008 as operations aimed for greater self-sustainability. A key upgrade occurred in 2006 with enhancements to the Select-A-Seat computerized ticketing system, enabling home printing and improved regional service for South Central Kansas events. The adjacent Kansas Pavilions, integral to the complex, underwent a $4.5 million in 2006, featuring new restrooms, an exercise arena, and structural, electrical, and mechanical improvements to support ongoing agricultural and equestrian activities. These efforts, funded partly through county resources, sought to extend the venue's usability amid shifting plans from a proposed $55 million full-complex overhaul in 2003 to the construction of a replacement facility. Operational challenges included event disruptions from anticipated upgrades, necessitating subsidies starting in 2004 to cover lost contracts and maintain tenants like the Wichita Wings team. The venue also faced growing competition from newer facilities, contributing to a 57.9% budget reduction by 2010 as operations scaled back in preparation for closure. Despite these hurdles, the Coliseum served as a central regional hub from the 1980s through the 2000s, peaking with 155 events and 570,000 attendees in 2007 alone.

Sports

Indoor Soccer Tenants

The Wichita Wings were the primary indoor soccer tenant at the Kansas Coliseum from 1979 to 2001, establishing the venue as a hub for professional in the Midwest. Founded as an expansion franchise in the Major League (MISL), the team utilized the Coliseum's full arena floor, configured into a 200-by-85-foot playing surface that allowed for the fast-paced, wall-to-wall style of characteristic of the era. This setup accommodated up to 9,681 spectators, with the Wings drawing strong crowds during their peak years in the , often averaging over 8,000 fans per game and creating an electric atmosphere fueled by the team's "Orange Army" supporters. Key to the Wings' success were standout players such as forward Jorgen Kristensen, midfielder Terry Nicholl, and striker Jeff Bourne, who brought international flair and scoring prowess to the roster, helping the team reach the MISL in their first five seasons and fostering a competitive edge. The Wings developed a fierce rivalry with the Steamers, marked by intense playoff clashes, including a dramatic 1981 semifinal where the Steamers edged out the Wings in overtime, and multiple high-stakes regular-season matchups that highlighted the league's regional intensity. Although the team never secured an MISL championship, their consistent postseason appearances—advancing to semifinals multiple times—solidified their reputation as a resilient franchise amid the league's growing popularity. Following the MISL's dissolution in 1992 due to financial strains across the league, the Wings transitioned to the lower-budget National Professional Soccer League (NPSL) in 1993, continuing operations at the Coliseum but with diminished attendance and resources that reflected the broader decline in indoor soccer's prominence. The team's final seasons were hampered by ongoing economic challenges, including repeated "Save the Wings" fan-driven fundraising efforts to avert collapse. Ultimately, the franchise folded after the 2000-01 NPSL season, ending its 22-year run as the longest continuously operating professional soccer team in the United States at the time, primarily due to insurmountable financial losses and waning league viability.
