Kansas City, the "City of Fountains," is Missouri's largest city, with more than 500,000 residents and a two-state metro area of about 2.2 million people. Famous for jazz, barbecue, and passionate sports fans, it offers a loyal local audience and steady visitor traffic, which makes billboard advertising in Kansas City a smart choice. Downtown, the Power & Light District, the Crossroads, Westport, the Country Club Plaza, the River Market, Brookside, and the historic 18th & Vine Jazz District each offer a distinct audience for targeted campaigns.
Kansas City sits at the crossroads of major interstates. Billboards on I-70, I-35, I-29, I-435, I-470, and US-71 reach commuters and cross-country traffic, and boards near Kansas City International Airport reach travelers. GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, home of the Chiefs, Kauffman Stadium, home of the Royals, CPKC Stadium, and T-Mobile Center draw huge crowds, while UMKC and the American Jazz Museum add more audiences for targeted outdoor advertising.
Billboards are effective for building brand awareness and reaching a broad audience, and location is key. Some of the best spots for billboards in Kansas City are high-traffic areas such as the Truman Sports Complex, the Country Club Plaza, Westport, Crown Center, and I-435. Also consider your target audience, the type of billboard (static bulletin or digital billboard), size, and design.
