In the vibrant city of Aurora, Illinois, two rock music enthusiasts, Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar, bring their passion for music to life by hosting a public-access television show called Wayne’s World from the comfort of Wayne’s parents’ basement. This unique show captures the attention of television producer Benjamin Kane, setting off a chain of events that intertwines their lives with the world of music and fame.
Wayne and Garth’s journey begins when a broadcast of Wayne’s World catches the eye of Benjamin Kane. While cruising around in Garth’s iconic car, the Mirthmobile, Wayne stops to admire a stunning 1964 Fender Stratocaster displayed in a shop window. This moment symbolizes Wayne’s deep connection to music and his aspirations as a rock star.
Later, the duo heads to a nightclub where they encounter Wayne’s troubled ex-girlfriend, Stacy. However, Wayne’s attention quickly shifts to Cassandra Wong, the talented vocalist and bassist of the band Crucial Taunt. Wayne impresses Cassandra with his Cantonese skills, sparking a romantic interest that complicates their lives further.
Benjamin approaches Wayne and Garth with an enticing offer to purchase the rights to Wayne’s World for $5,000 each. Wayne seizes the opportunity to buy the coveted Stratocaster, but Benjamin’s ulterior motives soon become apparent. He attempts to woo Cassandra with his wealth and charm, distracting Wayne and Garth with all-access tickets to an Alice Cooper concert in Milwaukee while promising to produce a music video for Crucial Taunt.
At the concert, Wayne and Garth meet a bodyguard working for Frankie Sharp, the head of Sharp Records, which opens new doors for their aspirations. However, as they transition to a professional studio environment under Benjamin’s guidance, they struggle to adapt to the pressures of the entertainment industry.
Wayne and Garth’s contract requires them to give a promotional interview to their sponsor, Noah Vanderhoff, who owns a chain of amusement arcades. When Wayne ridicules Vanderhoff on air, he faces the consequences and is fired, leaving Garth to host the show alone. This unexpected turn strains their friendship and creates tension between the two friends.
As jealousy brews over Benjamin’s growing interest in Cassandra, Wayne’s attempts to sabotage her involvement in the Crucial Taunt music video lead to a breakup. Cassandra’s trust in Wayne falters, and she decides to end their relationship, leaving Wayne heartbroken.
Despite their challenges, Wayne and Garth reconcile and devise a plan to win Cassandra back by securing her a record deal. They aim to ensure that Frankie Sharp hears Crucial Taunt perform. While Garth and their friends infiltrate a satellite station with the help of Benjamin’s assistant, Wayne attends Cassandra’s video shoot, where he embarrassingly tries to expose Benjamin’s true intentions.
Initially, Cassandra tells Wayne to leave, but upon realizing Benjamin’s deceitful nature, she decides to join Wayne in Aurora, where he offers a heartfelt apology.
