Transportation From Dancefestopia
Dancefestopia takes place at:
Wildwood Outdoor Education Center
7095 W 399th Street
La Cygne, KS 66040
And if you're wondering how the town's name is pronounced, La Cygne is pronounced “La-Seen.” Many Dancefestopia attendees travel to Kansas from other cities and states. You may be flying into Kansas City International Airport, staying at a hotel somewhere in the Kansas City area, or arranging transportation from another location.
Getting to the festival may be relatively easy. Getting transportation from Dancefestopia when you're ready to leave can be much more difficult.
La Cygne is outside the normal concentration of Kansas City-area rideshare and taxi drivers. A driver who accepts a long trip to take you to Dancefestopia may simply return to the Kansas City area afterward. That means opening Uber or Lyft when you're ready to leave doesn't guarantee that a driver will be available nearby to accept your trip.

Flying to Dancefestopia? Arrange Your MCI Airport Transportation
If you're flying into Kansas City for Dancefestopia, don't forget about the trip after the festival. Kansas City International Airport (MCI) is in the Kansas City metropolitan area, while Dancefestopia is held in rural La Cygne, Kansas. You may find transportation willing to make the trip from the Kansas City area to Dancefestopia. That does not mean there will be Uber, Lyft or taxi drivers waiting around La Cygne when you need to return to MCI. If you have a flight to catch, relying on finding an available rideshare driver at the last minute can be especially risky. Reserve your Dancefestopia-to-MCI transportation in advance.
Staying at a Kansas City-Area Hotel?
The same issue applies if you're returning to a hotel after Dancefestopia. Your hotel may be in Kansas City, Olathe, Overland Park or another community with plenty of transportation options.
Dancefestopia isn't. The important question isn't whether Uber or Lyft operates near your hotel. It's whether an available driver will be close enough to La Cygne to accept your trip when you're ready to leave. An advance reservation eliminates the need to start searching for transportation after the festival.
Can I Just Order an Uber or Lyft From Dancefestopia?
You can certainly check but the app will say LOOKING FOR DRIVER and after a few hours, you'll figure out that there are no drivers in the area.La Cygne does not have the concentration of Uber, Lyft and taxi drivers found in a major metropolitan area. During a large event such as Dancefestopia, demand can also increase dramatically as attendees begin leaving.
If you absolutely need transportation at a particular time—especially if you have a flight, hotel reservation, or other travel plans—arranging your ride beforehand is the safer option. Don't confuse being able to get an Uber or Lyft TO Dancefestopia with being able to get one FROM Dancefestopia.
