Check Out The Incredible Double Decker Arts Festival In Mississippi

The (somewhat) cooler spring weather presents the perfect opportunity to enjoy some outdoor activities in Mississippi. And while there are lots of things to do outside in this beautiful state, the Double Decker Arts Festival in Mississippi ranks pretty high up there. A favorite for more than 20 years, it’s one of the best festivals in Mississippi, and you don’t want to miss it.

Oxford’s annual Double Decker Arts Festival is back for another year to celebrate food, music, and the arts!

The 2022 fest will take place April 22 - 23 in the historic Oxford square.

A beloved tradition, the fest is heading into its 25th year, and takes its name from Oxford’s authentic double-decker bus, which was imported from England in 1994.

It’s come a long way since its debut, when the bed of an old pickup served as a makeshift stage and there were only a handful of vendors.

Today, it boasts crowds of more than 60,000 and hosts over 100 art and food vendors.

Live musical performances are also part of the fun.

This year’s event is even more anticipated than usual, and that’s because it had to be cancelled the past two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Making up for lost time, the 2022 fest will feature some new additions, including a community stage to host local dance shows, martial arts demonstrations, and other performances by area businesses.

Remember, the 2022 Double Decker Arts Festival in Oxford is April 22 – 23.
