Looking for something fun this Labor Day weekend- try one of these Special Events in KC and be sure to drink an ice cold Pepsi :) Kansas City Irish Fest, Friday-Sunday, Crown Center. kcirishfest. If you’re Irish and you’re from Kansas City, this is a can’t-miss event. If you’re neither or just one of the above, you still will have fun listening to the Irish music on seven stages and checking out the workshops, exhibits and food. New this year is the Tourism Ireland Virtual Café, where you’ll be able to chat directly with someone in Ireland. • Santa-Cali-Gon Days Festival, Friday-Monday, Independence Square. santacaligon: What better way to celebrate frontier trails — Santa Fe, California and Oregon — than by eating cotton candy and buying rhinestone-studded belts? Of course, there’s also music, a carnival and plenty of other stuff that helps draw thousands of folks each day • Kansas City Renaissance Festival, Saturday-Oct. 14, weekends, Labor Day and Columbus Day, Bonner Springs. kcrenfest: You’ll need all day, and then some, to see everything there is to see. There are 20 entertainment venues and 100 artisan booths, with live armored jousting three times a day. You can dress in your best 16th-century apparel, but it’s not required. Also- don’t forget Lynyrd Skynyrd with Kansas Concert at Starlight Theatre
