KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Boulevardia has been canceled for 2020 because of the COVID-19 outbreak.
Organizers announced Wednesday that the two-day music, food and beer festival — which had been planned for June 19-20 on Grand Boulevard at Crown Center — would not take place this summer.
“Providing a safe, secure and healthy environment for our pop-up party nation is our top priority,” Boulevardia President Trever Frickey said. “With that in mind, Boulevardia is being canceled for 2020 but we look forward to bringing all the beer, food, music and fun back next year.”
Boulevardia plans to return in 2021 after the community has had a chance to heal and recover.
“Boulevardia is comprised of dozens of community partners, vendors, restaurants, musicians, charities, and creators,” Frickey said. “This is an incredibly challenging time for all, but the Kansas City community comes together like nowhere else and we will get through this by supporting each other.”
Tickets previously purchased will be automatically refunded within 10 to 14 business days and hotel rooms booked directly through a Boulevardia partner at a promotional rate also will be automatically canceled.
