In this paper, we consider the initial boundary problem for the Kirchhoff type wave equation. We prove that the Kirchhoff wave model is globally well-posed in the sufficiently regular space $(H^2(\Omega)\cap H^1_0(\Omega))\times H^1_0(\Omega)$, then, we also obtain that the semigroup generated by the equation has a global attractor in the corresponding phase space, in the presence of a quite general nonlinearity of supercritical growth.
