Who’s had a better year than Travis Kelce? Another Super Bowl ring, dating arguably the most popular musician on the planet in Taylor Swift and a new contract extension, life ain’t too bad for the Kansas City Chiefs superstar tight end.
With all of the victories, added exposure and soaring star power, Killa Trav also took his Kelce Jam festival to another level in its second rendition.
This weekend saw Lil Wayne, 2 Chainz and Diplo headlining Kelce Jam 2024 presented by Jim Beam about a half-hour outside Kansas City at the Azura Amphitheater.

Thousands entered through the gates rocking outfits celebrating Kelce and their beloved Chiefs while some opted to don another shade of red in support Swift, who was performing across the globe in Sweden on Saturday night (May 18) as part of her Eras Tour.
“Insane,” Kelce tells Billboard when putting the euphoria of his last year into words, but he’s got no plans to stop pushing either. “And I’m gonna try to top it this year.”
From the second Travis steps onto the festival grounds in the late afternoon, it’s all eyes on him. He turns into a superhero with a child-like exuberance that somehow never drains throughout the night with an energy level at 34 that could run circles around most college students.
Kelce has become of the NFL’s biggest stars and the rare non-quarterback that’s able to transcend pop-culture in a way that few before him have.
From the lively performances to the eclectic outfits and a brief red carpet chat with the three-time Super Bowl champion, here are the best moments from Kelce Jam 2024. Watch the live stream here.
