Both of us are at Children’s Mercy Park for Legends of Whiskey KC. Outdoor summer pour festival on the Sporting KC grounds — regional booths first, the bigger names second, and a short list of new bottles on the watch list when the night ends.

What is Legends of Whiskey KC?

Legends of Whiskey KC is the outdoor summer whiskey festival at Children’s Mercy Park — Sporting KC’s stadium grounds in Kansas City, Kansas, adjacent to the Legends Outlets. Inaugural year was Saturday, July 13, 2024. The event is produced by Argyle Events, the Sporting KC events arm; Penelope Bourbon was the inaugural title sponsor.

The first year featured Boot Hill Distillery (Dodge City, Kansas), Yellowstone Bourbon, and Worldwide Beverage Group rye education sessions, plus designated-driver companion tickets and a partner hotel rate.
