Kansas City Jazz Ambassadors F.A.Q.s
FAQ: When is the jazz festival?
Answer: There are several different jazz festivals in the Kansas City area, most of which occur during the summer months. The KCJA is not the primary sponsor of any of these events although we do provide volunteer assistance to most of them. Please click on Events and Festivals for current information.
FAQ: I am interested in a Private Pub Crawl. How do I get more information?
Answer: These are smaller pub crawls for private groups such as members of a convention held in KC or various civic organizations. We've even organized Private Pub Crawls for birthday parties, wedding parties and divorces. Whatever the reason, if you can gather approximately 30 people together, we will show you a memorable and jazzy evening in KC. Please click on Private Pub Crawls for more information. And you can send an email to privatejazzcrawls@kcjazzambassadors.com to learn more or to start the process of booking your private crawl.
FAQ: I will be in town soon (or on specific dates). Who's playing then? And/or where is the best place to go to hear jazz?
Answer: That's hard to say if you are inquiring very far in advance. But check "News & Notes" in the current online issue of JAM, or click on "Wholenotes" for the most current information we have about upcoming jazz events and performances. To view the clubs most likely to be presenting live jazz while you are here, visit our Club Scene, either online or in the print version of JAM.
