Staying in the Plaza? You’re in a great spot. Grab a coffee, take a stroll, or do some shopping during your downtime. With beautiful fountains, architecture, and plenty of spots to explore, it’s perfect for a quick taste of KC.
If you're in town on the first Friday of the month (September 5), don’t miss First Fridays from 5–9 PM in the Crossroads Arts District. Expect gallery openings, street art, live music, food trucks, and local vendors. Stroll through the Art Alleys, grab dinner or a drink, and soak up the creative KC vibe. Pro tip: take the free streetcar to avoid parking headaches!
Take the streetcar to the River Market and explore one of KC’s oldest neighborhoods. The farmers market is open Saturdays & Sundays from 8 AM–3 PM, with fresh produce, local goods, and food vendors. P.S. - There's a vintage market every Sunday morning!
