Kansas: rugged cowboy culture, sweeping prairies, amber waves of grain. Farmers here have produced enough wheat to make 33 billion loaves of bread! The dial telephone, helicopter and carbonated drink machine were invented here. Serving ice cream on cherry pie used to be illegal! 277 events in the Sunflower State celebrate everything from pie a la mode to barbeque, culture to car racing. Three of the most popular are: Riverfest, Johnson County Old Settlers Festival and Kansas City Renaissance Festival. There’s no place like Kansas’ Festivals, Art Shows, Music Festivals and Craft Shows!
