Holiday Weekend Itinerary in Kansas City

Morgen

Start your weekend off right by brunching at Gram & Dun a modern American restaurant located on the Country Club Plaza and known for crave-worthy menu.

Anschließend können Sie in den Geschäften und Boutiquen der Plaza im spanischen Stil vorbeischauen und Ihre Geschenkesuche in exklusiven und lokalen Geschäften abschließen. Und keine Sorge, die Lichter zu verpassen – Sie kommen später wieder.

Nachmittag

Schnüren Sie Ihre Schlittschuhe und erobern Sie das Eis auf der Crown Center Ice Terrace , einer Wintertradition, die für alle Altersgruppen geeignet ist.

When you’ve had your fill of skating, get caffeinated and grab a bite at one of KC’s stellar coffee shops, like Messenger Coffee Co. (nestled in the heart of the Crossroads Arts District) or The Filling Station.

Abend

Start your night by returning to Crown Center, where you’ll find the jaw-dropping Mayor’s Christmas Tree, which towers at 100 feet high and illuminates the entire district.

After snapping pics and taking in the seasonal splendor, make your way to the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts, a stellar venue that features outstanding winter performances, including Handel’s Messiah, Christmas Festival and Kansas City Ballet’s The Nutcracker.

After catching a show, explore some of Kansas City’s favorite bars as they transform into winter wonderlands. Holiday magic can be found throughout the city with cozy rooftop igloos, seasonal cocktails and entire rooms turned into snow globes.

Morgen

Start your morning slowly with a cup of coffee from the Hergestellt im KC Café, where you’ll find locally made souvenirs (ideal for last-minute presents), pastries and caffeine pick-me-ups from regional roasters—plus the shop’s signature cereal milk lattes.

Wenn Sie ausreichend gestärkt sind, nehmen Sie die KC Streetcar und fahren Sie zur Union Station , einem architektonischen Wunder, das dank eines überlebensgroßen Weihnachtsbaums und zeitloser Dekorationen in weihnachtlicher Pracht erstrahlt.

Nachmittag

If the Kansas City Chiefs are in town, don your red and yellow and head to Arrowhead Stadium for the most enthusiastic tailgate culture in the country. Come kickoff, you’ll join tens of thousands of fellow fans cheering on the boys in red to gridiron glory.

Those in search of brunch and lunch will find no shortage of options in the area. Head to Rye for down-home comfort food, TACO NACO KC for tacos, burritos and more or, if you can’t decide, make your way to Strang Hall, a food hall featuring multiple cuisines and stylish digs.

Abend

Holiday cheer is in abundance at Winter Magic, a mesmerizing drive-through display featuring a mile of lights guiding you through Platte Purchase Park.

While up north, stop by Zona Rosa for gifts and a look at the merry and bright Northern Lights crowns, a suspended lighting installation that illuminates the entire shopping district.

Beenden Sie den Tag stilvoll mit der Bewunderung der Plaza Lights , einem alljährlichen Highlight seit fast 100 Jahren und dem passenden Abschluss eines perfekten Urlaubs.
