Happy Friday-eve Kansas City! We’ve got some pretty great stuff lined up over the next few weeks, including Turnstile: The Never Enough Tour Pt.2. Turnstile, Slayyyter, and Die Spitz are all hitting The University of Kansas Conference Center on October 6th. And of course we’re giving away a pair of tickets. Enter to win!*

JUST ANNOUNCED

  • Your next “fine, I’ll go out” night is probably already on this calendar. Warehouse on Broadway has plenty coming down the pipe, so poke around and make some plans. See what’s coming up.

  • Basketball is considerably more fun when the rulebook feels optional. The Harlem Globetrotters bring the trick shots, ridiculous handles, and decades-old tradition of making defenders look silly to T-Mobile Center on March 20. Grab tickets and see the chaos in person.

  • Cold beer and rockabilly tend to get along pretty damn well. David Graham & The Eskimo Brothers roll into Knuckleheads on Nov. 20 for a night of loud guitars and very little standing still. Get in on it.

  • Dinner plans just got themselves a soundtrack. Ziggy & The Neptunes take over Barley’s Kitchen & Tap on Oct. 3, so grab a drink, settle in, and see where the night goes. Make your plans now.

  • Plus other just announced shows from Disney on Ice, Hairball, Tatiana Dorokhova and more!

DATE NIGHT IN KANSAS CITY

When it comes to date night, Kansas City’s got plenty of options. Whether you’re after dinner and drinks, a little friendly competition, or something that actually gives you a story to tell afterward. We rounded up our favorite ways to make a night of it.

COMING UP

When Your Pet Needs to Borrow 10 Grand

Table legs get scratched up like they owe the cat money. Shoes are dragged under the couch like the mob disposing of a “package.” These are routine costs of pet ownership; a $10,000 surprise emergency surgery is not. Unfortunately, things DO happen, and you most assuredly DO want to be prepared for them. Pet insurance can help you offset some of these costs by providing up to 90% reimbursement, with plans starting at $10/month. Click below to find the right plan before your animal invents a new way to bankrupt you.

LOCALS ONLY

  • Got opinions about where KC desperately needs a bike lane or better trail connection? The city is hosting a public meeting Thursday, Oct. 1 at Gregg/Klice Community Center. Weigh in!

  • Kansas City is bringing courts, free legal help, and community resources under one roof this Friday, Oct. 2 from 9AM-3PM. The Community Resource Fair is open to everyone with no registration or court business required. See what resources are available.

That’s enough plans to keep you from accidentally spending the whole weekend reorganizing your fridge. Go see something, eat something good, and maybe win some free tickets.
