Kansas City Festivals

Kansas City Spirit Festival
Kansas City's three-day Spirit Festival is a commemoration not only of all things Missouri, but all things America. The Spirit Festival is the Midwest’s largest weekend music festival and takes place around the 4th of July. While it’s a party with dancing, music and all, the idea behind this nonprofit fundraiser is to pay tribute to Kansas City’s heritage as well as America’s independence. The Spirit Festival boasts the largest fireworks display in Kansas City. 200,000 people attend the annual Spirit Festival, which is in downtown's Penn Valley Park on the Lincoln Memorial. Music performers have included the Wallflowers, former Styx frontman Dennis DeYoung and the Kansas City Civic Orchestra. Admission is $10.
