CARTHAGE, Mo. – Organizers once again cancel Marian Days. Thousands of visitors are drawn to the event in Carthage that started in the late 70’s.

According to the Carthage Police Chief, there will be no 2021 Marian days. The Catholic festival was also canceled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Carthage Chamber says last year the City lost more than $150,000 in tax revenue.
