In Trenton, the Missouri Day Festival was founded in October 1984 in honor of our state's history. The Rock Barn, an octagonal-shaped limestone building on the National Register of Historical Places, is the focal point of the event. Missouri Day was declared by the Missouri General Assembly in 1915 on the third Wednesday of October. Arthur M. Hyde of Trenton, Missouri, was the Governor who proclaimed 18th October as Missouri Day.
The Missouri Day Marching Band Festival has been added to the activities since 1997. Twenty-plus high schools marching bands compete in various areas at our festival. Many of them will be marching in Trenton’s large parade on Saturday morning. You can watch the bands at the C.F. Russell Stadium, where the bands will compete in various field events all day.
