Kansas City's biggest and brightest family fun event happens every year over Memorial Day weekend on the grounds of Crown Center in Kansas City, MO! Last year, over 27,000 people attended Jiggle Jam for a weekend full of music, activities, festival food, photo opps, and just good 'ol plain fun! This year, we hope YOU will join us in celebrating our third festival in Kansas City!
The party takes place on Saturday May 29th (gates open at 9 a.m., fest runs till 8 p.m.) and Sunday May 30th (gates open at 11 a.m., fest runs till 6 p.m.) at Crown Center. This year promises to be the biggest and best festival thus far!
A few of the very cool new things this year include a unique photo booth sponsored by M Magazine where kids and grown-ups alike can give themselves a cool rockstar look and capture it on camera, and a special Garage Band themed area where families can just come hang out and jam out with each other using real instruments!
Don't forget to pack those bathing suits! Also new this year is an expanded family service area located just inside past the main gate entrance that will feature a larger space for families to change clothing. Moms, you'll also love that there's ample space to do diaper changes and even breastfeed those little ones in privacy and comfort. Oh and speaking of bathing suits….I know you'll want to snag one of the official Jiggle Jam beach towels that will be for sale in the merchandise tents this year — there are a limited number of these only so snag yours as soon as you get there! What a great souvenir for the most awesome festival on this planet!!
