FALL FEST

Columbia Main Street is thrilled to announce the return of the highly anticipated Second Annual Fall Fest, scheduled to take place on September 28th from 2:00 pm to 8:00 pm. The event, presented in partnership with Kiwanis of Columbia, promises a day filled with family-friendly activities in the heart of downtown Columbia.

Highlighting this year's festivities is the collaboration with Kiwanis of Columbia for their renowned annual chili cook-off, a ticketed event benefiting the organization's impactful initiatives. Attendees can savor a variety of chili recipes while also enjoying the vibrant atmosphere of craft vendors, food trucks, and activities for all ages. Live entertainment will grace the Fall Fest stage with performances by talented local artists throughout the day. Kiwanis of Columbia will also host a fun zone featuring free face painting, balloon artists, caricature artists, inflatables, axe throwing, and refreshing snow cones, ensuring there is something for everyone to enjoy.

Adding to the excitement, local businesses are invited to participate in the "Best Pumpkin" contest themed 'Falling in Love with Columbia'. Attendees of Fall Fest will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite painted pumpkin creations, with cash prizes awarded to the top three entries.
