Manhattan's music scene revolves around the Aggieville district, where Kansas State University's college-town energy fuels a mix of indie rock, country, and Americana. Venues like The Hat and Auntie Mae's Parlor host local and touring acts in intimate settings, while McCain Auditorium brings larger performances to campus. The Scheherazade Music Festival adds chamber music programming to the city's otherwise bar-driven live landscape.
