Surprise! Travis Kelce’s Jam Returns With Music And Mayhem

Popular Chiefs player and Taylor Swift's boyfriend is back in the music festival business for the second year in a row with the return of Kelce Jam at Azura Amphitheatre on Saturday, May 18, 2024.

The festival, created and hosted by the Chief's Travis Kelce promises the best food and drink in Kansas City, great interactive experiences, and fantastic musical performances.

A quote from Kelce on the Kelce Jam website promises that Kelce Jam will keep the championship energy going all year. While Kelce Jam organizers have not yet announced which of Kelce's "homies" will perform, he promises announcements regarding the artist lineup and ticketing details in the coming weeks.

According to Sports Illustrated's Arrowhead Report, last year's Kelce Jam featured Machine Gun Kelly, Loud Luxury, Rick Ross, and Kansas City's Tech N9ine. Not that Kelce had any problem getting artists for last year's show, I would assume he'd have an easier time getting performers this year thanks to his music industry connection.

I can tell you two acts who WON'T be appearing at Kelce Jam this spring. One, Mr. Kelsey's girlfriend Ms. Swift. She's playing Friends Arena in Stockholm, Sweden that day. Along for the ride opening for Taylor in Sweden is Paramore. So cross off both of those acts for Kelce Jam.

One of key parts of Kelce Jam is the food festival. Scheduled to be serving food this year is Joe's BBQ who will be offering a special "Kelce Combo". Q39 will be offering up a complimentary BBQ for VIP ticket holders. Additionally, Jack Stack BBQ, Longboards Wraps and Bowls, and Hawaiian Brothers will all be serving food. Additionally, hot dogs, pretzels, nachos, soda, water, and more will be available. Not to mention beer and liquor for those 21 and up with an ID.
