The KC Streetcar is free and easy to use. It has been operating for years, but the extension to the Plaza was just completed in the fall of 2025. It picks up and drops off across the street from our conference hotel, providing you with access to more of the city. You'll be able to explore the Crossroads District, Power & Light, and the River Market.
