The Unforgettable Elvis Festival In Mississippi That Will Have You All Shook Up
Elvis Presley has got to be the most famous person from Mississippi. So it only makes sense that the state hosts a festival in his honor. The annual event includes tons of Elvis impersonators, but that’s not all. There’s also great food, incredible music, parades, and more. This is one event the entire family – even the dog – can appreciate. Take a look:
For the past two decades, the city of Tupelo has been hosting the Tupelo Elvis Festival.
There’s a lot more to the festival than great music, though. The festival also features food vendors, a 5K run, movie poster exhibit, and living history on Main Street.
Remember, this year’s event is scheduled for June 5 – 9, 2019. For more information, call (662) 841-6598 or visit the festival’s Facebook page. To purchase tickets, visit the festival’s website.
