Community & Events

Where the whole town shows up.

Reardan is a place where a parade still stops traffic, the whole county turns out for a mule, and neighbors know each other by name. This is your hub for the celebrations, markets, meetings, and traditions that make up a year in town.

★ The Signature Event

Reardan Mule Days

For over 120 years, the first Saturday of June has belonged to Mule Days, the one-day celebration that defines Reardan. The town swells to many times its size for a day built on good fellowship: a grand parade down Spokane Avenue, a mule and horse poker ride, the Hot Hoops 3-on-3 tournament and corn hole, a classic car show, a huge craft and vendor fair filling City Park, a barbecue and food-truck roundup, a kiddie carnival over at Roberts Park, and an evening street dance with a live band and beer garden. It is small-town Americana at its very best, and the volunteer Mule Days Committee pours the proceeds right back into town all year, from flower baskets to Christmas lights.
