Your Weekend Guide to Tupelo

No events listed yet for this weekend in Tupelo. Check back soon — new events are added daily from venues across Mississippi.

Tupelo is where Elvis Presley was born in a two-room shotgun house in 1935, and the city has built a graceful events tradition around that legacy. The Elvis Presley Birthplace hosts programs year-round, and the Tupelo Elvis Festival each June fills downtown with tribute artists, concerts, and fans from around the world. Beyond the King, the downtown arena draws touring country and rock acts to northeast Mississippi, and a lively Main Street scene of restaurants and bars keeps local musicians working. It's a small city that understands exactly what it gave American music — and celebrates accordingly.
