Travis Kelce ‘called in favors’ for his Kelce Jam music festival lineup in Kansas City next weekend – with Lil Wayne and Diplo headlining
‘No matter what your tastes are, this festival is for the masses. This is for the people of KC. They get started at $49, And the musical lineup speaks to that, right? It’s a little bit of everything. ‘We have some local DJs opening and building throughout the evening with our headliners.’
As well as Lil Wayne and Diplo, 2 Chainz, Irie, and E-V are also scheduled to perform. Tickets, which start at $50, are still available at the time of writing.
It has been reported that next year, Kelce will take the festival across the United States with a string of dates in cities from Los Angeles to Miami. Last year, Kelce had Machine Gun Kelly headline the event.
He apparently has a $ 15 million budget to stage shows in the future, according to The Sun.
At present, Kelce is in Paris, where he attended girlfriend Taylor Swift’s latest show on her Eras Tour.
Swift definitely won’t be at Kelce Jam this weekend – the date clashes with her show in Stockholm, Sweden.
‘Things would be great names for him to bring the KC, and he wants to bring a mix of hip-hop and electronic music. And I think we did a good balancing act by Lil Wayne, 2 Chainz, and Diplo on the electronic side.
‘He has his fingers on the city’s pulse and can call in favors against legends that may not have come otherwise. I don’t think Lil Wayne has been in Kansas City for quite some time. (He) may not have come, but when Travis Kelce calls, you answer.
‘That’s proven here, with Lil Wayne being such an iconic legend coming and showing out for ‘Kelce Jam’ because of his and Travis’ relationship.’
Silberzweig added: ‘What was important for Travis is making this festival feel like it’s for everyone and that younger, old, moving families want to come out.
