Higginsville Country Fair 2026
By S. Otero What a weekend busy in Higginsville! From three parades, Homecoming football with tailgating, Country Fair booths, bands, many contests, class reunions, kings and queens, and plenty of funnel cakes (and delicious Cattlemen’s burgers), the town was buzzing with activity. While the temperatures were scorching, the community spirit was amazing to witness! It was a wonderful weekend filled with hometown pride, familiar faces, laughter and plenty of love for our community.
