Mark your calendars, the Oka Kapassa Native American Festival returns to downtown Tuscumbia, September 11th and 12th, 2026! 🪶🥁
Meaning "cold water" in Chickasaw, Oka Kapassa celebrates the Native American heritage of the region with traditional dancing, drumming, storytelling, and craft demonstrations from tribes across the country. The festival honors the history of the Chickasaw and other tribes who once called this part of Alabama home, offering an educational and deeply respectful celebration of Native culture. It's become a beloved annual tradition in the Shoals area.
Are you planning to attend Oka Kapassa this year?
