🎪💙 We love seeing our amazing celebs share their experiences from the Big Slick Celebrity Weekend.

From heartfelt stories about visiting the amazing kids and families at Children's Mercy, to shoutouts for the families, volunteers, sponsors, and staff who make this event possible, to reliving the laughter, music, magic, and mayhem of the Big Show...we love seeing Big Slick through their eyes.

Every year we gather these amazing humans in Kansas City to help shine a spotlight on the need for pediatric cancer research and care. And every year, they leave Kansas City with stories they'll never forget.

To all of our celebrity guests: thank you for showing up, giving back, and helping make Big Slick so special. We can't wait to do it all again. đź’™

At this precise time seven days ago, the lights were coming up, the crowd was roaring and the 2026 Big Slick Show was officially underway. 🎪💙

And BIG it was. Epic musical performances. Laugh out loud comedy. Mind-blowing magic. Incredible auction items. Heartfelt stories that reminded us exactly why we were in that room. And several thousand generous souls in the room who helped push the weekend's fundraising total to more than $4 million for pediatric cancer research and care at Children's Mercy.

There were standing ovations. There were tears. There were moments we'll be talking about for years. And there were definitely a few things you had to see to believe.

We're still reliving every minute of it... and you should too.

One week ago we spent time where the heart of this event truly lives.

We had the privilege of visiting the incredible kids and families at Children's Mercy, along with the doctors, nurses, researchers and staff who show up every day to provide world-class care, hope and healing.

These visits are a powerful reminder of why Big Slick exists and why this community continues to show up year after year.

To the patients and families who welcomed us into your rooms and shared your stories, thank you. To the Children's Mercy team, thank you for the compassion, expertise and love you pour into every child who walks through your doors. We are honored to support your mission.

The world’s biggest sporting event is headed to its smallest host this year: Kansas City, Missouri.

All eyes will be on the Midwestern town when it welcomes soccer teams and fans for the FIFA World Cup. As one of 16 host cities across the U.S., Canada and Mexico, Kansas City will host six matches in June and July.

The hometown pride runs deepest for Heidi Gardner, Saturday Night Live star and diehard Kansas City fan, who often returns home with undiminished enthusiasm.

“Kansas City is so approachable, the city and the people,” she says.

Travelers will find world-famous barbecue, a thriving arts scene and spirited sports bars to watch the games. Here, the actress and comedian shares her most cherished places to visit during World Cup season.

🎪💙 Was “Just This Year” really already one week ago today? 💙🎪

Last Friday, we kicked off the 2026 Big Slick Celebrity Weekend with an unforgettable evening at beautiful Kauffman Stadium.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us, and to the incredible sponsors and partners who helped make the night possible. From cocktails under the fireworks to surprise moments, great conversations, and plenty of laughs, it was the perfect way to start an amazing Big Slick weekend.

Rob, Heidi, Eric, Dave, Jason, Paul, and their celebrity friends had an absolute blast hosting all of you.

And a special shoutout to the Kansas City Royals for the first-class hospitality and accommodations.

One week later, we’re still smiling. 🍻

Cheers to an unforgettable night, an incredible weekend, and the $4.2 million raised together for pediatric cancer research and care at Children's Mercy. đź’™

We already shared Stephen Wilson Jr.'s incredible performance of “Stand by Me” from the 2026 Big Slick Show. As if one unforgettable performance wasn’t enough, here’s his equally incredible rendition of his hit single, “Gary.”

Did you catch Paul Rudd on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon this week? 🎥

While talking about his new film Power Ballad, Paul also gave a shoutout to Big Slick and the incredible impact YOU’ve made - helping us close in on $40 million raised for Children's Mercy.

Then came our favorite part: when Paul revealed that the winners of his Avengers: Doomsday premiere auction item were actually sitting in the Fallon audience... and they were!

A huge thank you to the Schell family for their generous support of Children’s Mercy, and congratulations on not one, but TWO amazing Big Slick auction wins - last year’s Fallon experience and this year’s Avengers premiere adventure. And a huge thank you to our Big Slick hosts and celebrity friends who donate these types of incredible auction items that drive an amazing impact in our fundraising efforts for pediatric cancer research and care.💙
