Welcome to Waldo Folk,


a cozy music venue in the heart of Kansas City’s eclectic Waldo neighborhood. Created by music lovers, for music lovers, Waldo Folk strives to create an intimate and soulful experience for music enthusiasts in a listening room environment. Instead of a noisy bar with background music, we focus on creating an environment where the music takes center stage. 

Waldo Folk’s once-monthly shows are held in the Tap Room at Waldo Pizza. This space provides a unique intimate experience that allows the audience to feel they are part of the performance. The Tap Room at Waldo Pizza offers a wide selection of beer, wine, and cocktails, as well as the full Waldo Pizza menu. 

Waldo Folk prides itself on curating a diverse lineup of live performances, showcasing the best in Folk, Americana, Bluegrass, and beyond. Our goal is to provide a space for listeners to experience once-in-a-lifetime intimate performances with local, regional, and national artists who are quickly rising to fame. 

Whether you are a dedicated Folk aficionado or a casual listener, Waldo Folk encourages you to join us in celebrating the power of live music.
