First Fridays Returns in August

Friday, August 6, 5 – 9 p.m.

On Friday, August 6, downtown Goshen is bringing back the First Fridays tradition with Cornfest. Come downtown to celebrate with friends and family in the downtown you know and love.
Cornfest is a celebration of all things corn.

Cornfest features a variety of corn-based dishes, a cornhole tournament, a mechanical bull, corny kids activities, and free live music! This event is always a community favorite, celebrating Hoosier culture, Mexican culture, and a shared love of corn.

This year, the event is also host to a 25-year anniversary celebration for the Electric Brew. They will be giving out free coffee drinks and raffle giveaways.

The event runs from 5 – 9 p.m.
