What to know

Magnolia Market at the Silos is a cornerstone of Waco's identity, often described as being nearly synonymous with the city itself. Opened to the public in October 2015, the site is defined by its two 120-foot silos, which were originally built in 1950 for the Brazos Valley Cotton Oil Company. While the cotton oil mill company closed in 1958, the silos remained in use for storage until the 1990s before being transformed into a modern retail destination. Curated by Joanna Gaines, the market is a hub for intentional design inspiration and home goods. Visitors can explore the retail spaces, including the Shops at the Silos, and find a renewed vision for their living spaces. The experience extends beyond shopping, as the grounds feature a food truck park, lush gardens, and the Silos Baking Co. for treats like cupcakes. The destination has seen immense popularity, drawing an estimated 1.2 million visitors by November 2016. To accommodate this growth, a $10.4 million expansion was announced in 2019. The roots of the brand began at the Little Shop on Bosque, which is recognized as the birthplace of Magnolia Market.
