Advertising

Streetcars do more than simply improve mobility. By promoting development, raising property values, attracting businesses and residents, and helping to redefine our city, streetcars benefit everyone. There are a variety of options and programs for local businesses and corporate partners to take advantage of KC Streetcar’s integration into the city.

• You can sponsor/advertise at a KC Streetcar stop (15 of the 16 stops have shelters)
• You can sponsor a streetcar vehicle through our traditional sponsorship program
• You can wrap a streetcar vehicle if you are promoting a community benefit or activity
