Last year, it was voted Kansas City’s favorite music festival by Visit KC’s Visitor’s Choice Awards. This year, Kansas City’s 18th & Vine Jazz and Blues Festival hopes to build off that momentum. The festival returns to the Jazz district Saturday, October 10th. It will feature artists with both headliners and local bands.
