SATURDAY, OCT. 25, 2025
On Saturday morning, come to Party in the Park for coffee or breakfast from one of our food trucks and a great spot to watch the parade! The parade starts at 9 a.m. at the intersection of Holden and Clark (Selmo Park) and ends in downtown Warrensburg.
After the parade, enjoy live music by party band KC FLO, a beer garden, bounce houses and plenty of options for lunch and snacks! The party is free and open to all. Reserve a table for your family and friends or plan a reunion (reservations come with vouchers and swag)! After the party, it's a short walk to the football stadium to watch the Mules take on Emporia State at 1:30 p.m.
