About Blue Heaven Studios

Blue Heaven Studios sits in the heart of downtown Salina, Kansas, in a former church sanctuary originally known as Salina First Christian Church. This intimate space blends a storied recording studio with a live concert venue, offering an up-close experience with a capacity of about 450 seats (pews plus balcony). Since its first Blue Heaven concert in August 1997 and the Blues Masters at the Crossroads tradition starting in 1998, the venue has become a beloved stop for blues fans and music lovers alike. Whether you’re catching a Blues Masters performance or future acts, you’ll find a warm, no-fuss buying process and a genuine insider feel—like having a friend who can secure great seats for you.

Getting to Blue Heaven Studios is convenient for downtown Salina visitors. CityGo provides fixed-route transit, with the closest hub at 7th & Walnut and the Purple Route 1 stopping near the venue. Parking is available throughout downtown Salina, with a downtown parking garage project near 7th & Walnut aimed at improving access in the coming years. For those traveling from out of town, there are several nearby lodging and dining options.
