EXPLORE KENEDY

As Karnes County’s largest city, Kenedy is an economic center for the surrounding agricultural area. Occupying land that was once part of a Royal Spanish Grant to Don Carlos Martinez, Kenedy’s colorful history as a community began with the purchase of land for a town site in 1886 by Captain Mifflin Kenedy, a partner of Richard King of the famous King Ranch. Early growth of Kenedy Junction, as it was first known, was attributed to its position as a major stop on the San Antonio and Aransas Pass Railroad. In the early 1900’s Kenedy gained a reputation for gun fighting that earned it the nickname Six Shooter Junction. Kenedy Chamber of Commerce 205 S 2nd St, Kenedy, TX 78119 (830) 583-3223

Kenedy’s 40th Annual Bluebonnet Days

Mark your calendar for Kenedy’s 40th Annual Bluebonnet Days festival! This year, Bluebonnet Days will be held on May 11th & 12th. As Bluebonnet Days continues to grow and bring in additional attractions including additional vendors, a larger carnival, the growth of the IBCA sanctioned Triple Heat BBQ Cook-Off, and larger musical entertainment, the Bluebonnet Days festival has been relocated to the Karnes County Show Barn for 2018. The relocation of this event will allow for a more centralized and cohesive atmosphere and a family friendly and safer environment. The Kenedy Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors and Executive Director, Jolene Terwilliger have been hard at work planning the details. Additionally, The Bluebonnet Days parade will remain in Downtown Kenedy.
