One of my extremely talented friends, Lynnie from This Is Ours (who somehow makes photography look cooler than everyone else), posted about craving tacos on a Wednesday, and honestly?

That immediately reminded me that the Tacos & Tequila Festival is coming to Legends Field on June 13th. Enter for a chance to win a pair of tickets and prepare accordingly for tacos, tequila, and very questionable dancing decisions.*

JUST ANNOUNCED

• Hatebreed crash into Hatebreed: SUMMER SLAUGHTER TOUR 2026 at Warehouse on Broadway on September 3rd, bringing the kind of heavy, cathartic chaos that’ll leave your neck sore for three business days and your camera roll full of grainy mosh pit videos.

• Gary Allan takes over Ozarks Amphitheater on July 11th with heartbreak anthems, late-night country energy, and the exact type of concert where someone absolutely will cry during “Watching Airplanes.”

• Hard Candy Kansas City with Akeria Davenport hits Hamburger Mary's Kansas City on June 1st with drag excellence, and enough glitter, confidence, and one-liners to spiritually reset your entire week.

• Loathe brings their crushing mix of metalcore and dreamy atmosphere to The Granada on August 2nd. This is the kind of show that feels equal parts emotional spiral and out-of-body experience.

• Putti Fruity takes over Cafe Corazon on June 13th with loud music, queer Latina joy, nonstop perreo, and the kind of dance floor where everyone suddenly becomes best friends in the bathroom line.
