Blue Room

We were at the Blue Room as we toured the Kansas City Jazz Hall of Fame - a wonderful place in it's own right. The Blue Room is known for it's Jazz and is a great place to hear live Jazz.

When I lived in the Kansas City area, I would frequent the Blue Room's Open-mic poetry nights. They were held once per month. The atmosphere is captivating. It is located in a urban area in Kansas City area (the Jazz District, also referred to as the 18th and Vine area). It is neighbored with good soul-food and cajun restaurant's, the Negro League Baseball Museum, The Gem Theatre and a few other nice, classy places. Inside of the Blue Room, you will find historical pictures of famous Jazz musicians. The tables are unique and designed to reflect the world of Jazz. The only issue I had was that they don't serve alcohol on open-mic nights, but they do other nights of the week. They have a list of events, other than open-mic. If you are looking for a classy, clean and relaxing night out, I would recommend The Blue Room.
