August 20-26

Labor Day is right around the corner, and Tupelo should be your destination.  Start out with a visit to see us here at the Tupelo Convention and Visitors Bureau and grab a seat to watch one of our featured short films, like "Tupelove" or "Front Porch in Tupelo."  Also while you're here, check out our Roots of Elvis exhibit and two of the jumpsuits worn by Elvis himself.  For great budget-friendly ideas about what to do when you're in town (or for Tupelo residents, what to do to get out of the house), check out our itinerary suggestions.  However, if you choose to go to Veteran's Park, keep in mind that the Splash Pad closes after Labor Day, but the new Music Bend Nature Trail is now open and ready for runners or even those who are looking for just a casual stroll.  For nighttime activity, check out our list of live music for a taste of the Tupelo sound.  And before you leave, don't forget to take your picture with the new Elvis statue!
