Submit an Event 

Would you like your event featured on the Wichita 250 events calendar? Great! Please read the guidelines below carefully before submitting your event. 

Wichita 250 Events Calendar Policy 

  • Events must be open to the public, have a clear tie to civic engagement and celebrate democracy during America's 250th. Think: “Does this event educate about civic life and/or celebrate America's 250th”
  • Fields on the event submission form with an asterisk (*) are required.
  • Events must be submitted with a high-resolution photo (minimum size 1900x760, jpg or png); you must have full rights to use any images you submit for promotional purposes.  
  • Photos or images that have text (such as logos, posters, flyers, etc.) will not be approved as they do not crop properly or display well across the site and do not provide a good user experience.
  • Please use proper punctuation. 
  • Please do not use emojis.
  • Please allow 5-7 business days for event approval.

Events not likely to be approved include but are not limited to:

  • Most events held outside of the greater Wichita area
  • Most fundraisers
  • Meetings, workshops, networking and membership-only events
  • Religious and political events
  • Most book signings

Please note: Your event will not automatically be added to the calendar.  It will first go through an approval process to make sure it meets the Wichita 250 calendar policy. The Wichita 250 committee reserves the right to approve or deny any submitted events and make any minor edits to event information as needed. Events are frequently added to the calendar, so please check to see if your event has already been included.

As a reminder, by submitting imagery with your event, you acknowledge you have full rights to use those images for promotional purposes. You are also granting Visit Wichita the rights to use the imagery for promoting Wichita as a convention and visitor destination in any of Visit Wichita’s promotional and marketing materials.
