If that’s the refrain you’re singing, you’re in for a treat: Great food. Great fun. Great people.
First-time visitors are invariably surprised by the wealth of activities and the variety of experiences available. Take in some jazz at 18th & Vine, enjoy a slab of barbecued ribs or a prime Kansas City steak.
We’re known for our jazz, barbecue, and beef, but there’s so much more: museums, theater, sports, history, shopping and, of course, wonderful food.
We’ll make your visit easy. Check out the Community Calendar for a full listing of upcoming events and activities. The links at the top of this page will connect you with all that you need to make your visit an enjoyable one.
