Since organizing in 1994, Main Street Golconda hosts several community building festivals and events throughout the year. Hosting the finish line for the River to River Relay kicks us off in the Spring. New in 2023, our Hometown Christmas Celebration will mark the end of our downtown event season.

We are always excited to welcome the crowds of visitors that travel to our tiny town to take part in our many festivals and events.
