Power & Light District

The Power & Light District is an eight-block entertainment hub in downtown Kansas City with music running across every scale, from cocktail lounge to arena. At its center is KC Live!, a one-block area devoted to live music and entertainment venues. KC Live! is an open-air live music venue, surrounded by restaurants and nightlife establishments, and covered by a translucent canopy that keeps the elements out. The KC Live! block hosts recurring concert series including Hot Country Nights on Thursdays, Friday Night Live (alternative, rock, Top 40, and tribute bands), and District Rhythms (soul and R&B) in the fall. KC Live! hosts more than 150 free events each year. On the second floor of that same block, Howl at the Moon runs high-energy dueling pianos Wednesday through Saturday nights, taking audience song requests throughout the show. PBR Big Sky is a country and western bar at the north end of the KC Live! block. The Drum Room, inside the Hilton President Hotel, anchors the district's quieter end. Established in 1941, it has hosted performers including Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, and Patsy Cline. Today it offers live jazz and craft cocktails. Nationally known musicians grace the stage at The Midland Theatre, which offers three different levels for an array of listening experiences, with a capacity of 3,500. Across the street sits T-Mobile Center, one of the country's busiest arenas, handling the district's largest touring acts.
