Experience Festivals
The zany Fire Ant Festival, held each October, is a tongue-in-cheek tribute to the profoundly bothersome,imported fire ant. A wacky idea from the outset, one of its highlights is a Fire Ant Calling Contest. How do you call a fire ant? It’s anybody’s guess, meaning all entrants stand an equal chance of winning. A series of unusual events round out the weekend. Always a great event. Held on the historic Courthouse Square in downtown Marshall, (903) 935-7868.
Each St. Patrick’s Day weekend, this fun event celebrating Harrison County’s Irish heritage features Celtic musicians and traditional Irish fare. The festivities take place in downtown Marshall and at the Weisman Center, 211 North Washington Avenue, (903) 935-8417.
