Travis Kelce reveals why he feels ‘life couldn’t be better’ after trip to Italy with Taylor Swift
Travis Kelce is living out his “Wildest Dreams.”
During the 2024 Kelce Jam music festival presented by Jim Beam Saturday night, which Page Six was at, the Kansas City Chiefs star told concertgoers he is happier than ever amid his booming career and whirlwind romance with Taylor Swift.
“Throughout all my years in [Kansas City], life could be no better than right the f—k now,” Kelce told the crowd at the Azura Amphitheater in Kansas City, Mo.
“It’s alive and popping in Kansas City and I know you guys feel that s–t too,” he added. “I’ve been so thankful that you guys show up and show out every single time when we play at Arrowhead [Stadium] that we’re going to keep bringing Kelce Jam to you in the offseasons, baby.”
This is the second year that Kelce has hosted the music festival, which saw performances from Lil Wayne, Diplo, 2 Chainz, DJ Irie and more.
Last year, the event fell on the same weekend as the NFL Draft, drawing more than 20,000 people.
Although Kelce exclusively told Page Six that he was admittedly a “little nervous” that the turnout wouldn’t be as good this time around, fans showed up in droves to get a glimpse of the NFL star.
Thousands of people came out to see performances by Lil Wayne, Diplo, 2 Chainz, DJ Irie and more.
“It’s just been better and better every single year and KC just keeps showing up and showing out,” the Super Bowl champion told us on the red carpet, calling the support “unbelievable.”
“I didn’t know what the outcome was going to be but sure enough everybody showed up and it’s just so much fun just getting out there and giving some high fives and seeing the smiles.”
Along with the successful festival, Kelce has a lot more to celebrate between winning his third Super Bowl in February, landing the “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader” reboot and getting cast in a new show alongside Niecy Nash.
However, thousands of “unbelievable” Chiefs fans came out to support the NFL star and watch the performances.
On top of all that, the NFL star has been jet-setting all around the world to support Swift on her international Eras Tour.
Earlier this month, the tight end flew to Paris alongside Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper to kick off the European leg of her record-breaking tour.
The threesome appeared to have the time of their lives while singing and dancing in a suite — with Swift giving Kelce a few sweet shout-outs during the hours-long show.
It’s just been better and better every single year and KC just keeps showing up and showing out,” the Super Bowl champ told us.
His girlfriend, Taylor Swift, wasn’t able to attend the festival due to her tour schedule.

Following the stop in France, Swift and Kelce, both 34, flew up to Northern Italy for a romantic getaway in Lake Como, where they rented a 16th-century private villa.
The Villa Sola Cabiati, which costs a whopping $21,000-per-night, features a private pool, expansive arabesque gardens, a butler, housekeepers, a chambermaid and a private chef — all available “at your disposal.”
The couple seemingly made the most of their stay, enjoying a scenic candlelit dinner outside the massive manor during their first night.
Then on Wednesday, the twosome was photographed on a romantic boat ride before heading to dinner in town.
Despite the dreary weather, the couple looked every bit in love as they posed for pictures while snuggling up on the vessel.
However, they went their separate ways on Thursday — with Kelce heading home as Swift went to Sweden for three sold-out shows.
It’s unclear when Kelce plans to rejoin the pop star on tour as she is set to play in Europe every weekend until the end of August.
