🌸 A HUGE Thank You to Our 2026 Sponsors! 🌸

The Magnolia Days Festival doesn't happen without the incredible support of our sponsors. Year after year, local businesses and community partners step up in a big way to make this festival something we all look forward to every spring, and this year was no different.

To every sponsor who supports our efforts to bring big time fun to small town Texas: THANK YOU. Your generosity is felt by every family who walks through the Square, every child who plays in the Kids Zone, and every person who dances to free live music under the Texas sky. You make the magic happen!

We are so grateful. See you next year - May 14-15, 2027! 🤠❤️

Fun Things to Do and See at MDF!

War Memorial Museum | Columbus
📅 Saturday, May 16 | Noon to 5 PM
🎟️ FREE Admission (donations welcome)

Built in 1883, this striking tower was Columbus's first fire-suppression water storage facility, complete with a horse-drawn pumper. When a new water system replaced it in 1912, the tower fell into disrepair and was nearly dynamited in 1927. The castle-like crenellations at the top? They were added to hide the blast damage.

Today, the tower houses a small museum honoring local veterans from the Civil War through Vietnam. It's a piece of Columbus history worth the visit!
