The 1861 Club will be operated and managed by the Kansas Fairgrounds Foundation, with the Foundation handling the bookings for the venue. During the Kansas State Fair, the venue will be a climate-controlled food, beverage and entertainment venue, featuring fast fine dining for those fair patrons looking for an excitingly new and entertaining Fair experience.
