Coming Soon: PorchFest KC - Oct 8 2016

By
Real Estate Agent with Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate-Kansas City Homes

 

 

Fall is THE time for special events in Kansas City, and PorchFest KC is relatively new to our metro area.  This year marks #3 for the unusual yet charming local music celebration happening next month in the Valentine neighborhood.

 

PorchFest is a one day free event, when local acoustic (and nearly acoustic) individual performers and bands play music on the porches of private homes in a specific area. For the first two years, the West Plaza neighborhood hosted the event. This year it's Valentine--a 12 block area between Southwest Trafficway and Broadway in Kansas City MO. Organizers are hoping that with the larger streets, porches and house lots, the event won't be as congested as past years.  Hours are noon-5 on Saturday October 8, 2016.

 

If you plan to go, please remember to take public transportation if possible or park a vehicle several blocks away and walk to the festival. Tipping the bands is encouraged! Do not bring alcholo or coolers; this is a family friendly happening. Food trucks will be parked nearby, along with porta- potties.

 

Volunteers are always needed--more info at the PorchFest KC website.

That's a very cool idea, and a charming way to enjoy the community and some free music. Hope you get to enjoy this next weekend!
