Lil Wayne to headline Travis Kelce’s ‘Kelce Jam 2024’ on May 18



Travis Kelce may be dating the biggest pop music superstar in the world, but Taylor Swift is not on the lineup for his music festival this year.

Nevertheless, the three-time Super Bowl champ has some major talent in store for the 2024 Kelce Jam: Five-time Grammy winner Lil Wayne is set to headline the second annual music festival.

Scheduled for May 18 at Azura Amphitheater in Bonner Springs, Kansas, Kelce Jam will serve as another hometown victory celebration curated by the Kansas City Chiefs tight end.

Kelce said in Tuesday’s announcement that last year’s  inaugural event, which was headlined by Machine Gun Kelly, “exceeded my expectations when over 20,000 fans showed up in the rain to ‘fight for your right to party,’ and this year promises to be even more over the top.”

Hitmakers DJ Diplo and 2Chainz will also join the “Lollipop” rapper on this year’s mainstage lineup for what he referred to as the “ultimate day of music, food, and an electric experience celebrating Kansas City.”

During his 2023 ESPYs performance of “A Milli,” Lil Wayne shared a moment with Kelce in a specially tailored version of the hit song referencing star athletes.

The 34-year-old tight end told the Kansas City Star: “This city has given me so much love, so much support throughout my career with the Chiefs. It’s more than just a festival; it’s a way to give back, to celebrate together — the music, the food, the vibes.”

“Kelce Jam Is about creating an experience where everyone comes together as one big family,” he added. “Kansas City is my second home, and Kelce Jam is my way of saying thank you and showing my love right back.”

Ticket prices start at $49.99 and a presale will be held Friday at 10 a.m. at KelceJam.com. VIP passes are also available.
