We’ve got a sweetheart of a Downtown – an original, authentic downtown - accentuated by the most beautiful Town Square and Main Street lined with trendy shops, boutiques, antiques, live music, brews & spirits, friendly faces and good eats. We are a TOP 10 BEST SMALL TOWN by Southern Living and Country Living magazines. We’ve become known for our family-friendly First Fridays in downtown surrounded by live music, food trucks, sidewalk vendors, and merchants that stay open a little later. Other notable events include Second Saturdays at the Factory at Columbia, not to mention Columbia Cars & Coffee on third Saturdays. The sites and stories of Columbia extend beyond our vibrant downtown.
The emerging Columbia Arts District is just a few blocks southwest of downtown buzzing with local, funky, creative artists and makers, especially at the Muletown Flea Market on the third Saturdays of the month. We've got a rich history to offer as our presidential credentials put us on the map with the ancestral home of the 11th U.S. President James K. Polk, not to mention historic Elm Springs. The outdoors will bring out your true adventurer on the Duck River, Chickasaw Trace cycling trails, and at the scenic Yanahli Park. Wait, there’s more. Other arts, history, recreation and events like Mule Day (an annual April celebration going on since the 1930s) await you so explore our visitor guide at VisitColumbiaTn.com to plan your weekend getaway to Columbia, Tennessee.
