Our Festival is Growing!

With YOUR HELP, The 2024 Warrensburg Corn Festival will debut a permanent outdoor stage!

While planning for the 2024 Festival, we were faced with an increase in the stage rental fee. The Committee discussed this challenge and decided that rather than paying higher fees every year, a permanent, 32’x24’ stage would be more cost-effective for the long-term. This stage can also be used year-round for other entertainment and community events. We approached the Village Board for approval and they agreed to the construction of a permanent stage with the goal of accomplishing the project through community support.

We were recently awarded a grant of $10,000 from the Heart of Illinois Community Foundation of Macon County and Decatur Earthmover Credit Union toward this project. A local resident is also helping with a sizable contribution. With the Festival fast approaching, we are eager to get started and raise additional funds to meet our goal of providing a new, outdoor entertainment space for the community.

If you would like to help us achieve this goal, make an ONLINE DONATION BELOW or please visit the Village Hall to make a donation or email us at WarrensburgCornFest@gmail.com. We are currently working on ways to recognize donors who help us complete this project.
