Things To Do & See

Art Exhibits • Festivals/Markets/Parades • Holiday Celebrations • Live Music/Concerts • Museums • Walks/Runs

Make memories here...

You can't shop and eat all of the time, which is why uptown Marion has also become famous - locally, for sure, and in some cases nationwide - for creating and hosting family-friendly events of extraordinary range and quality, year around.

Got some money in your pocket?

We happen to have forms of entertainment you can spend it on. Got more money in your pocket? Save it, because many of our uptown's impressive charms don't cost a thing, except for your one time investment in a decent lawn chair... or, in the case of Christmas in the Park, battery-operated socks!
