100 Concerts in 100 days in Kansas City

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — There are hundreds of bands and musicians coming to Kansas City in the next 100 days. This post includes a list of 100 artists coming to our area up till July 9, 2019. It includes bands that are household names, bands you most likely won’t know, symphony performances, and Broadway musicals. Live music is a big part of Kansas City. If you’re up for a new adventure, try seeing a band you don’t know at a venue you’ve never experienced. Kansas City has one of the best symphonies in the world. If you haven’t seen a symphonic performance yet, then you should make a goal of visiting the Kauffman Center this spring (or at least this year).

Productions of Rent and Hamilton will be in Kansas City in the next 100 days. Crowds for these shows are expected to be large and could impact traffic.

Some of the bigger acts playing this spring include: Tesla, Mitski, Ozzy Osbourne, Vincent, MGMT, Goo Goo Dolls, Train, and New Kids on the Block. Over the next few months, music fans will be able to find anything to their liking from heavy metal, Christian music, pop, country, and classical. (Admittedly some bands made this list because their name sounded cool.)
