Held over Labor Day weekend at Crown Center, Kansas City Irish Fest is the largest community festival in Kansas City and the third largest Irish Festival in the United States. It attracts over 80,000 people annually. The festival offers nine stages featuring international, national and local bands, dancers, storytellers and other performers.
