Main to Main Trade Days: A Pickers’ Paradise Across Webster Parish

Lola MagazineLola Shreveport

50 Miles • 3 Days • Endless Finds

Each November, the quiet highways and charming Main Streets of Webster Parish come alive with the sights and sounds of Main to Main Trade Days—a 50-mile, three-day treasure hunt that stretches from Sibley to Springhill.

For more than twenty years, this beloved event has drawn thousands of pickers, porch-sitters, and small-town explorers eager to uncover antiques, vintage gems, and handmade treasures beneath Louisiana’s autumn skies.

Come for the finds—Stay for the charm

What began as a small, community-led effort to connect neighboring towns has grown into one of the Ark-La-Tex’s favorite fall traditions. Hosted by the historic Minden Main Street and Springhill Main Street districts, Main to Main Trade Days transforms Webster Parish into one sprawling open-air marketplace—rain or shine. Vendors line the route through Sibley, downtown Minden, Dixie Inn, Cotton Valley, Sarepta, Cullen, and downtown Springhill, creating an unbroken chain of commerce and camaraderie.

Fifty miles of treasures, stories, and Southern hospitality

Visitors can browse everything from antique furniture and collectibles to homegrown goods, handmade crafts, and small-town eats. Along the way, local churches, civic groups, and businesses join in the fun—offering food booths, live music, and friendly smiles that make the experience feel more like a reunion than a retail event.

It’s not just a sale—it’s a celebration of community.

For many, Main to Main Trade Days has become the perfect girls’ weekend getaway or family road trip. With cozy bed-and-breakfasts, boutique lodging, and plenty of photo-worthy stops, it’s a chance to slow down, shop local, and savor small-town life at its best. The event embodies the Webster Parish spirit: frien

dly faces, entrepreneurial energy, and a shared love for tradition.

Whether you’re a seasoned antique hunter or a first-time visitor, you’ll find more than bargains here—you’ll find connection, creativity, and charm around
every bend.
