During the month of June the village hosts the Hot Blues Barbecue. This event is typically held in the beautiful Scripter Park. It is typically a one day festival that is chock-full of musical entertainment. The day is loaded up with a variety of bands that usually play for about an hour apiece.

August is the month for the “Celebrate Oxford” event. This event offers a wide variety of entertainment for the entire family. Don’t miss the classic car show, the live entertainment, crafts, antiques, and even a kids town. The day will be full of games and raffles. The whole family can enjoy this activity.

After summer has come to a close, fall sets in with the “Scarecrow Festival”. We guarantee you will have never witnessed the number of sightings of scarecrows as you will at this event.

Finally, if you are looking for a regular evening of entertainment, the village hosts a series of “Concerts in the Park” during the warm summer months. They are hosted nearly every Thursday at 7PM in the Centennial Park.
