2026 Columbus Women & Girls' Fest

This celebration highlights women and girls in the community with a full day of entertainment and activities. The festival features performances by TANK and NORMAN of TANK AND THE BANGAS as headliners, along with several other musicians including Quan Howell, Ar!yah, Jordan Hope, Saint Rockstar, Mal V Moo, and the Columbus Adventist Academy Choir. You'll find over 30 vendors owned and operated by women and girls, interactive workshops, live art demonstrations, and food trucks throughout the day. Families can expect activities designed for children alongside everything else happening at the festival. Tickets are available through edfortion.org with a "pay what you can" option if purchased by mid-July. Since the event runs from early afternoon into evening, bringing lawn chairs is recommended for comfortable seating during performances. This is a great opportunity to support women and girl entrepreneurs while enjoying live music and creative experiences together.
