If you love to support local, and we know y’all do, then Jackson Indie Music Weekend is the perfect festival for you! “What is JIMWeekend,” you ask. It’s a four day event that celebrates Central Mississippi’s budding independent musicians by allowing them to do what they do best. And this weekend is packed with some amazing performers. JIMWeekend will be featuring 20 new artists, and they’ve expanded to four different stages this year including venues like the Ecoshed and Fondren Park.

The Festival starts with the Friday Night Street Party followed by the Annual Red Hills Festival on Saturday, May 29th. There you see local artists and vendors on full display, and you’ll be able to get anything from handmade jewelry, candles, furniture, outdoor art, and much more. Would it be a Mississippi festival if there weren’t amazing eats?! You can expect dozens of vendors and a wide variety of cuisines, so there should be a little something to please everyone’s appetite! If that hasn’t reeled you in, maybe the Red Hills Car Show will. Check out over 100 cars and trucks of all makes and models. There’s a variety of judging categories, so you are sure to see some one-of-a-kind entries this year. To top it all off, there is a 5K Run and a Fun Run starting in downtown Louisville. There will definitely be something for everyone all Red Hills Festival needs is you!
