Year-Round Fun

No matter the time of year, Cape Girardeau is home to a vibrant calendar of events that include:

• Seasonal Fun: Celebrate Cape’s culture with events like the Riverfront Fall Festival and SEMO District Fair in the fall, holiday happenings during winter, Tunes at Twilight in the spring and Cape Catfish games each summer. Each season offers unique experiences for visitors of all ages.
• Live Music and Entertainment: Enjoy live performances featuring local and visiting artists. From jazz to bluegrass, there’s music for every taste at a variety of indoor and outdoor venues all year long.
• Family-Friendly Fun: Bring the kids to interactive activities like Forest Friends Storytime at the Nature Center or discover history together at Fort D events like the Fall Muster and Fourth at the Fort. And in the summer, Cape Splash is ready to cool you down after our local baseball team, the Cape Catfish get you fired up!
• Farmer’s Markets with Local Eats: Cape’s Riverfront Market offers fresh produce, handmade goods, and local delicacies every Saturday morning during the season while the Cape Farmers Market hosts seasonal offerings on Thursdays at West Park Mall’s parking lot.
