Come join us at the first Kansas City Jiggle Jam!

“Music to a Parent's Ears”

It will be the most memorable Memorial Day Weekend your family will have!

The first festival of its kind in the Midwest, Jiggle Jam is designed to generate the most joyful sound in the world – that of families having fun together!

From classical to rock – moms, dads, grandparents, aunts and uncles and of course kids will have fun hearing from over a dozen national and local entertainers.

Featured entertainers will include They Might Be Giants, Justin Roberts, Trout Fishing in America, Tom Chapin, John McCutcheon, and Kansas City’s own hometown favorites, like Jim "Mr. Stinky Feet" Cosgrove & The Hiccups, Bongo Barry, Dino O'Dell & the Veloci-Rappers, and Funky Mama.

Kids activity areas will include an American Heart Association activity tent, Wonderscope crafts, tea parties, bubbles, bouncy toys, puppet classes and instrument-making workshops.
