Haxtun's Corn Festival

Haxtun's Christmas

This is Haxtun's Christmas celebration! Local businesses stay open late, carolers can be seen and heard on main street, and a craft fair and pancake supper are housed in our community center.

Haxtun High School's

Madrigal Dinner

usually held in December

This night of Renaissance hilarity is put on by Haxtun High School students and staff. Peasants travel the room selling silverware and telling jokes. Meanwhile the king and queen pass judgment on guests, sometimes making them sing for their supper or promptly beheading guests who have bad table manners. Tickets or information can be obtained by calling Haxtun High School, (970) 774-6111.
