Celebrate springtime blooms in Idabel with a visit to the springtime Dogwood Days Festival. Held annually in April, festivities include a myriad of craft vendors, children's games, live entertainment and more. Enjoy delicious fair food under the sparkling white dogwood blooms while browsing through the festival's retail sidewalk sales. The festival kicks-off with a Mr. & Mrs. Dogwood Days Pageant, crawfish boil and a street dance accompanied by live entertainment. Saturday starts early with a 5K followed by a pancake breakfast, live entertainment and golf and corn hole tournaments. 

A spring tradition in Idabel, the Dogwood Days Festival features something for everyone and prides itself on providing good, old-fashioned family entertainment. Bring the entire family for activities that will last throughout the afternoon, and then take a short trek over to neighboring Beavers Bend State Park for a stunning scenic drive lined with native dogwood trees.
