Despite enjoying a stellar year on the field, Travis Kelce’s off-field life has grown to be just as fascinating. The Kansas City Chiefs’ standout tight end has sparked a media frenzy due to stories circulating and fans going crazy, with a lot of it centered upon his relationship with pop sensation Taylor Swift.
However, the NFL star was thinking outside his personal life when he left his house for his second annual Kelce Car Jam charity event in Kansas City, Missouri, to celebrate turning 35.
The car show charity event, a staple in Kelce’s efforts to give back to the Kansas City and Cleveland communities, was filled with car enthusiasts and supporters, but one notable attendee was missing: Swift.
Despite her absence, Kelce was in good spirits as he mingled with fans and talked about the event’s cause. Raising money for kids in need, the event highlighted Kelce’s commitment to his community, showcasing his passion for both philanthropy and classic cars.
Now, as for the most-asked question surrounding Kelce these days: Will Taylor Swift be attending the next Chiefs game? It’s the question that has been dominating headlines, especially with her recent appearances at Arrowhead Stadium.
After being spotted cheering on Kelce in past games, fans were eager to know if the Grammy-winning artist would make another appearance. Kelce confirmed that Swift won’t be at the charity event, but assured everyone she will be in the stands for the Chiefs’ upcoming matchup.
“She’ll definitely be there for the game,” Kelce casually mentioned during a conversation with Raising Cane’s staff at the charity event. His confirmation stirred even more excitement among the Swifties and Chiefs fans alike, who have been keenly watching their budding relationship unfold.
As for his birthday wish? Kelce kept it football-focused.”I’ll take another Super Bowl if you got one of those,” he said with a grin when asked by reporters what he was hoping for this year.
The tight end, who already has two Super Bowl rings to his name, remains laser-focused on adding another championship to his resume, even amid the celebrity-fueled buzz.

Kelce’s love for cars also took center stage at the event.
Earlier in the week, on his “New Heights” podcast, which he co-hosts with his brother Jason Kelce, he shared his plans to show off a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle at the event. The vintage car holds sentimental value, as it was the same vehicle he and Swift drove through Kansas City after she attended her first Chiefs game last year.
“This car show has turned into something really special,” Kelce said during the podcast.
“It’s a block-party style event with some of the coolest cars in the city. I should have my old-school ’70 Chevelle revved up and ready to go.” Even without Swift by his side, Kelce was clearly revved up about showcasing his favorite ride.
This year marks a significant shift for Kelce. It’s his first birthday since going public with his relationship with Swift in September 2023. Last year, the couple celebrated his birthday with a private, low-key evening in Missouri.
This time around, while Swift wasn’t physically present, Kelce was surrounded by family, including his brother Jason and their parents, Ed and Donna, who flew in to join the celebration.
With Swift slated to attend the next Chiefs game, and Kelce focused on continuing his dominance on the field, it’s safe to say his 35th year is off to a strong start.
Whether it’s under the stadium lights or cruising in his Chevelle, Kelce seems to have it all lined up. As the season progresses, the only thing left on his wish list is another Super Bowl ring.
