Kelce Jam Has Been Called Off

My apologies to all the guys out there: Travis Kelce’s yearly event combining cuisine and music, Kelce Jam will not be returning this year. The Kansas City Chiefs' tight end revealed on May 14 that the event has been cancelled for 2025. This is a big disappointment for fans who are huge admirers of Lil Wayne and Diplo , who both participated last year. Don’t worry, however — Kelce Jam seems to be preparing for a return.

"Even though we'll be apart from you this year, we're using this opportunity to prepare for an even grander, superior, and more memorable event next summer," the festival declared. Instagram Tuesday. I'm hopeful this indicates a Taylor Swift appearance. “Stay tuned for exciting updates and announcements. We can’t wait to celebrate with you soon.”

The festival was allegedly supposed to be on May 17, 2025, according to eagle-eyed fans who found the date through a Garage Beer ticket giveaway, per the Kansas City Star . Although event organizers never announced a lineup or a location, the festival did not acknowledge its lack of existence until four days before it was allegedly supposed to commence. Was Billy McFarland in charge of this?

The previous year's festival drew more than 20,000 attendees and took place at the Azura Amphitheater in Bonner Springs, Kansas. Attendees witnessed Kelce downing beer onstage, tossing footballs into the audience, and enjoying complimentary Wing Stop, reminiscent of activities one might see at a fraternity gathering. Well then, let's aim to attract even more folks next time around.
