Travis Kelce brings it with Kelce Jam — Super Bowl Champion’s Music Festival Taking Place During Draft Weekend (April 27-29) in Kansas City features top music acts
Kansas City, Missouri — On the heels of his Super Bowl win with the Chiefs, Travis Kelce is bringing more than the Lombardi Trophy to Kansas City this year.
Last week, the two-time Super Bowl Champ announced what a press release described as “his first-ever personal music festival, Kelce Jam, one of Kansas City‘s biggest entertainment events ever.”
The inaugural event will unofficially kick off an epic weekend of football in Kansas City as hundreds of thousands of fans descend upon the city for the Draft. Featuring entertainment curated by Travis, musical performers include Machine Gun Kelly, Rick Ross, Loud Luxury, Tech N9ne and others, the event will also include the best KC restaurants (Joe’s and Q39), custom cocktails, interactive brand activations, and more.
In homage to Travis, Kelce Jam is the perfect way for the city of KC to continue celebrating its Super Bowl victory. Taking place at Azura Amphitheater on Friday, April 28, beginning at 6 p.m., this all-ages event will welcome 15,000 fans. Last Friday, sales for General Admission Tickets started at $49.99 and TickPick VIP passes starting at $224.99 began.
“The Super Bowl victory lap is not over yet …. KC, just wait to see what I have in store for you all with my inaugural Kelce Jam — Draft Weekend’s biggest event ever featuring my homies Machine Gun Kelly, Rick Ross, Loud Luxury and Tech N9ne, some of KC’s best eats, awesome brand activations, and unmatched championship energy. Get ready to fight for your right to party,” said Travis Kelce.
Coming off of his second Super Bowl Championship, Kelce has cemented himself as one of the all-time great pass receivers.
The future hall of famer recently hosted Saturday Night Live, created the country’s #1 overall podcast “New Heights” with brother Jason, and launched his own clothing brand. Now, he’s starting his own music festival. A recipe for success, Kelce Jam will infuse the KC spirit throughout the event while incorporating specialty curated activations, food and beverage, talent, and more.
Headliner Machine Gun Kelly last visited KC in July 2022, performing to a sold-out crowd of nearly 20,000 at the T-Mobile Center. The 2023 GRAMMY-nominated artist also sold 20 million albums globally and continues to sell out stadiums on his current worldwide tour. The first rapper to win the talent show at the legendary Apollo Theater, the cross-over pop-punk star has had two #1 albums, including this year’s release “Mainstream Sellout.”
Grammy-nominated artist Rick Ross will hit the stage to perform hits such as “Idols Become Rivals” and “Hustlin'” while Loud Luxury, the critically acclaimed DJ duo, will bring a dose of electronic dance music to the Kelce Jam main stage.
Travis will also welcome hip-hop hometown favorite and Kansas City legend Tech N9ne.
