Crossroads of Texas GO TEXAN Country Festival

GO TEXAN Returns to Texas' Largest One-Day Arts, Music and Food Festival

For more than 25 years, the Crossroads of Texas Country Festival has been a signature celebration of Texas culture in historic downtown Waxahachie, growing into Texas' largest one-day arts, music and food festival. This year, GO TEXAN returns as a premier partner, continuing to shine a bright spotlight on the people, products, flavors, and traditions that make the Lone Star State unique. Together, the festival and GO TEXAN are creating an unforgettable celebration that is bigger, bolder, and more Texan than ever.

MADE IN TEXAS: Texas-Made Art, Crafts, and Culinary Favorites

Over 200 booths will fill the historic courthouse square, transforming downtown Waxahachie into a vibrant showcase of GO TEXAN-certified vendors, Texas artisans, and small businesses. From handcrafted goods to bold, flavorful dishes, every product and experience reflects the pride and creativity of Texans. As part of the expanded GO TEXAN Experience, festivalgoers can sample and shop from a curated collection of homegrown excellence — including selections from the Uncork Texas Wines program and fresh, wild-caught offerings from the Texas Gulf Shrimp initiative.

Whether you're tasting, toasting, shopping, or strolling, the entire festival celebrates what it means to GO TEXAN — supporting local producers, honoring Texas traditions, and connecting communities through the things that make our state one of a kind.
