The De Soto Days Festival is the largest city event and is now organized by a volunteer group of citizens who spend many months and hours planning the annual event. This group aims to provide class-act entertainment, great food, many vendors and the Evans Midland Carnival! The three-day event also includes one of the largest parades in the state and the Dean Weller Classic Car Show.
A Saturday morning parade & car cruise has almost always kicked off the festival's all-day celebration. After the Jaycees, the event was organized by the City and then passed on to the City Park Board, for a time, with help from the De Soto Chamber of Commerce. The annual festival organized by a volunteer group of citizens who spend many months and hours planning. Currently, the Evans Midland Carnival Company has guaranteed their participation over Labor Day weekend. Food vendors, craft booths, car show and live music are just a few of the scheduled events that are typical for this festival.
