Our Mission is to make a major contribution to the ever-improving quality of life in the City of Madisonville by providing its citizens with a significant and continuing source of community pride, a citywide celebration by and for every citizen. The festival is a means of promoting the benefits of a common bond between the people, businesses, government, education and civic organizations which make up our community. The Mushroom Festival will strive to continually increase its draw as a regional tourism magnet, growing stronger in appeal-power every year, presenting an opportunity to showcase our city’s hospitality, and ultimately impacting the economic growth of Madisonville.
