Over the past two months, aside from co-hosting his “New Heights” podcast with his brother Jason, Travis Kelce has largely stayed out of the public eye alongside his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
Following a busy 2024 and with the NFL offseason in full swing, Kelce has taken time to enjoy some privacy with Swift. But now, it appears he's ramping things back up.
After being spotted in New York City on Sunday and Monday—first celebrating Mother’s Day, then attending an Amazon MGM Studios event with his brother—Kelce shared some significant news on Tuesday regarding “Kelce Jam,” the music festival he launched in 2023.
Fans had been eagerly awaiting details about the 2025 event, but “Kelce Jam's” official social media accounts confirmed that this year’s festival has been canceled. However, plans are already in motion for a major comeback in 2026, as detailed in a statement:
"Kelce Jam is planning ahead for 2026. Although we'll miss being with you this year, we're taking this time to gear up for an even bigger, better, and more unforgettable experience next summer. Stay tuned for exciting updates and announcements. We can't wait to celebrate with you again soon."

Fans reacted to the news:
"I KNEW IT," a fan said.
"I assumed this was going to happen! See you guys next year though I cant wait !" Another fan posted.
Someone else added, "I wondered when they would say something lol."
One more fan commented, "Well there ya have it, I was wondering what was happening."
The inaugural event in April 2023 was held at the Azura Amphitheater in Kansas City and coincided with the NFL draft, drawing a massive turnout of over 20,000 attendees.
