The Tallgrass Film Festival may be the launching pad for the next Steven Spielberg! To find out about all the great film-making talent in the area, make sure you head for this festival held the third week in October at various locations in downtown Wichita. This is the ninth annual festival, and it has built a solid tradition of allowing you to screen the best foreign, independent, short, retrospective and premiering films. Grab some popcorn, take a seat, and enjoy!

The Wichita Grand Opera offers you a chance to see stellar performances like Puccini's Madama Butterfly and local productions like the 10th Anniversary of There's No Place Like Home in a first-class venue that features stunning acoustics and equally compelling production values. You and your date will enjoy getting close to one another while enjoying the operatic masterworks that are unfolding in front of you on your romantic rendezvous.

Are the kids getting in your way? Maybe it's time to retreat to your home away from home at Twin Peaks, Wichita's ultimate man cave. At this nightlife spot, the beer is always kept at a perfect 29 degrees, there are TV screens bringing you your favorite sports, and great food served up by the always friendly Twin Peaks Girls.
