O Anfiteatro Azura em Bonner Springs, com capacidade para aproximadamente 18.000 pessoas, completou recentemente atualizações significativas fora de temporada, após quatro décadas hospedando concertos ao ar livre. Essas melhorias incluíram a reforma e substituição de algumas poltronas azuis do local, além de novas passarelas de concreto e na área dos boxes. O palco também estava em processo de repintura.

Country Stampede, set for June 25 to 27 at Azura Amphitheater, is moving to the Wichita area in 2027, live entertainment and music festival company Kustom Entertainment said in a statement.
