Special Events is responsible for all of the annual events that take place around the city including, but not limited to, the Christmas Parade, Annual Tree Lighting, Mardi Gras Parade, Independence Day Parade, Independence Day Patriotic Program and Fireworks Display, Halloween Candy Walk, Fountain City Arts Festival, and the Miss Fountain City Scholarship Pageant.

Special Events strives to introduce new and exciting events and programs to offer to our community each year. This year, Special Events Director Kellie Cook established a "Movie Under the Stars" series for the summer as well as the upcoming "Back to School Street Dance."

If you have an idea for a new event or a suggestion to enhance our current events, please feel free to contact the Special Events Department at the contact information noted on the right of this page.
