Things To Do In Kansas City For Couples
Kansas City, where love and BBQ smoke fill the air, is not just a place for delicious ribs but also a playground for couples seeking some fun and romance. Keep reading to learn more.
1. Visit a drive-in movie theatre
Not too long ago, drive-ins were the place to be on date night. With only about 300 drive-in theaters still in operation, Kansas City is lucky enough to have two nearby. Tap into your dating nostalgia, grab some popcorn, and see a movie under the stars. So romantic!
- B&B Twin Drive-In Theatre (Independence, MO): Admission is $22 per carload for the double feature (credit and debit cards only). Purchase your tickets online here. The drive-in is open 7 days a week from March to October.
- Boulevard Drive-In Theatre (Kansas City, KS): Admission is $15 per person (CASH ONLY) for the double feature. Tune into 89.7FM on your car stereo and listen to the movie from inside your vehicle or bring your lawn chairs and listen to the pole speakers. The drive-in is open on Fridays & Saturdays from April to September.
2. See a performance at the Kauffman Center
The Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts hosts a variety of performances throughout the year. Whether you’re interested in ballet, opera, or theater, it definitely makes for one of the top things to do in Kansas City for couples.
For a fun and memorable performance, I recommend seeing the Kansas City Symphony perform iconic scores from your favorite movies (e.g., Star Wars and Harry Potter) as you watch the film in unison.
3. Listen to live jazz at Lonnie’s Reno Club
Rated the #1 most entertaining show in Kansas City, enjoy an upscale dining experience while listening to the infamous Ronnie McFadden play classic Kansas City jazz music.
Located in the Ambassador Hotel in downtown KC, this jazz club is a hidden gem in the city and a perfect spot to celebrate a special occasion. Note: Lonnie only performs on Fridays and Saturdays so be sure to plan accordingly. Reserve your table at Lonnie’s Reno Club here.
4. Enjoy food & beer pairings at Boulevard Brewing Company
Book the Smokestack Tour & Tasting and enjoy a two-hour Boulevard experience including a brewery tour plus four bites expertly paired with the perfect BLVD beers. The guides are very knowledgeable and hugely entertaining! Tours are available from Monday – Thursday for adults aged 21 and older at a cost of $40 per person.
5. Attend a sports event
A four-sport city, Kansas City is home to several major professional teams including the Kansas City Chiefs and Royals, Sporting KC, and KC Current.
The city has so much pride in its sports teams and the electric atmosphere at the games reflects that – Arrowhead Stadium holds the record for the loudest outdoor open-air stadium after all! Add a tailgate party before the game and you will have a date to remember.
Fun fact: KC Current’s new stadium (expected to open in 2024) is the first in the US built specifically for a professional women’s soccer team.
6. Explore Union Station
One of Kansas City’s most iconic landmarks, Union Station has been transformed into a cultural hub and features many exhibits, restaurants, and shops.
Take a tour of the station, watch a show at the planetarium, catch a film at their movie theater, test your skills at an escape room, visit world-class touring exhibitions (like our personal favorite, Auschwitz: Not long ago, Not far away.), or enjoy a meal at one of the many restaurants. You could easily spend the whole day here!
Pro Tip: End the night by grabbing a drink at the Conductor Club. It’s a new rotating-themed cocktail bar tucked away in a hidden corner of the historic Union Station and one you don’t want to miss. Be sure to make reservations in advance!
7. Chow down on Kansas City-style barbecue
“Kansas City” and “barbecue” go together like two peas in a pod. With over 100 barbecue restaurants in the KC metro area, you’ll be sure to find something to tickle your barbecue fancy. For a date night, I would recommend Joe’s Kansas City Bar-B-Que (located inside a gas station) or relative newcomer, Q39.
8. Watch an innovative performance by Quixotic
Quixotic is an innovative event entertainment company that fuses imagination with technology to create a fully immersive, multi-sensory experience. The performance group, branded an “innovative circus ensemble” by The New York Times, provides you with a Cirque du Soleil-style show mixed with a Kansas City flavor.
This is one of my favorite experiences in the city to date and one I cannot recommend enough! Find an upcoming show here.
In mid-September every year, you also have the opportunity to experience Terra Luna by Quixotic at the Overland Park Arboretum & Botanical Gardens. Instead of viewing the performance group on a stage, here you get up close and personal with the dancers, musicians, and aerial acrobats as you stroll through the garden.
9. Wine tasting
Kansas City is home to some of the best wineries in the region, and what better way to spend a romantic afternoon than by sampling some wine with your significant other? Here are some of my personal favorites:
Amigoni Urban Winery, located in the historic Daily Drover Telegram building, offers a beautiful and intimate setting, perfect for couples. You can enjoy a variety of wine flights while indulging in a delicious cheese board.
KC Wine Co is a boutique winery located in Olathe, Kansas, and always keeps a packed calendar. Here you can enjoy live music, food trucks, wine slushies, music bingo, and dog-friendly events.
Jowler Creek Vineyard and Winery, located just 30 minutes from downtown Kansas City, is a family-owned winery that offers a unique and eco-friendly experience. You can take a tour of the vineyard before settling in for a wine tasting on the patio.
If you’re looking for something a little more upscale, head to the Somerset Ridge Vineyard and Winery. This winery is located in the rolling hills of Miami County and offers stunning countryside views accompanied by live music.
10. Grab a drink under the stars at The Mercury Room
Delicious cocktails, sweeping views of downtown, and thousands of LED lights twinkling above you set the stage for the perfect romantic date night setting. A swanky bar located in the Crossroads, The Mercury Room makes you feel like you’ve stepped inside an exclusive club in the city. With just twenty-eight seats inside, I would highly recommend making reservations to reserve your spot.
11. Dance the night away at Guitars & Cadillacs
Yee-haw, y’all! This KC original live country music venue and dance hall is the perfect place to let loose and soak up your favorite tunes! Don’t worry, you do not have to be a professional two-stepper to have a good time (there’s no judgment here). Note: Expect to pay a $5 cover charge 6-9 p.m. and $10 9 p.m. to close on Friday and Saturday.
12. Play pickleball at Chicken N Pickle
It’s no secret that pickleball has taken the U.S. by storm. Enjoy some friendly competition with your loved one to see who will earn bragging rights. It also makes for a good double-date spot.
Afterward, enjoy some tasty food and beverages at the “chicken” portion of Chicken N Pickle. You’ve earned it! Note: SERV recently opened in Overland Park and is another great spot to play pickleball with 6 indoor courts and 2 outdoor courts.
13. Go apple picking
Apple picking is the quintessential fall date for couples. Located in Kansas City, KS, Cider Hill Family Orchard is home to 6,000 apple trees with 18 different kinds of apples to choose from. Pro Tip: You are charged by the bag size versus weight, so be sure to fill your bag to the top!
Enjoy picking out the best apples with your loved one and treat yourself to the delicious apple cider doughnuts and slushes afterward.
14. Enjoy art-themed mini golf
Head over to the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art and enjoy a date that will be sure to satisfy you both. This 9-hole course presents a creative interpretation of a work of art in the museum’s collection.
There’s even a snack bar nearby that sells local favorites like Betty Rae’s ice cream and beer from Martin City Brewery that you can take with you and enjoy on the course. Art course pricing is $18 for adults and $14 for museum members. All tickets include access to the museum. Ready to play? Book your tee time here.
15. Take a dip at Shawnee Mission Park Beach
Shawnee Mission Park Beach was named the best beach in Kansas by Money Magazine. The beach opened in 2018 boasting a sizable lakefront swimming area as well as a sand volleyball court, shaded concession area, and restroom facilities.
Daily fees for Johnson County residents are $6 and $8 for non-residents. So what are you waiting for? Pack your chairs, umbrellas, and food (no alcohol allowed), and enjoy a day at the beach with your loved one!

Stroll past the different vendors and sample homemade jams and baked goods, and maybe even round up some local ingredients before heading home to make brunch together or take it to a nearby park for a picnic. See below for my recommendations for the best farmer’s markets in the Kansas City metro area:

Another great museum that is free to visit is the Kansas City Museum which has been recently restored and renovated with all new history and humanities-based exhibits, installations, and amenities. Note: The museum is closed Monday-Wednesday.

On the First Friday of every month of the year, the Crossroads Art District and West Bottoms transform into one big block party. It’s basically a holiday in Kansas City! You can enjoy live entertainment, visit art galleries, and explore the local shops.

25. Sunday bingo at Boulevard Brewing Co.
This isn’t your grandma’s Bingo game – Boulevard hosts a weekly Sunday Bingo free of charge and gives out fun prizes such as koozies, beer, and free drink coupons. Space is limited and all guests over the age of 3 need a ‘ticket’ to enter.
I would recommend arriving at least 15 minutes prior to the start time (11 a.m.) as it can get quite busy. Might I also suggest getting the Tank 7 mimosa and the much-loved biscuits and gravy while you’re there. YUM! Visit their website to reserve your spot.
Things To Do In Kansas City For Couples When It Rains
If the weather isn’t cooperating, don’t worry! Kansas City has plenty of indoor activities to choose from. Here are some of my favorites:
26. Take a pottery class at Belger Arts Center
Recreate the classic scene from “Ghost” and enjoy one of the date night pottery classes held at Belger Arts Center on Fridays and Saturdays. You and your sweetheart will learn how to throw on the potter’s wheel and get to decorate them afterward.
Each class costs $100 which includes clay, glazes, and firing for two people. Space is limited, so you must register at least 72 hours in advance.
27. Axe-throwing fun for two
