TEXAS RICE FESTIVAL
The Texas Rice Festival takes place at the Winnie-Stowell Park in Winnie, Texas the first weekend of October every year. The festival celebrates rice harvest, and it draws locals from all over Southeast Texas. It is filled with fantastic food vendors, entertainment, and activities for the entire family.
Since 2008, the Texas Rice Festival has helped our community in a variety of ways. We would like to thank our hundreds of volunteers and community support that helped make this happen!
