FESTIVALSOUTH's®  is Mississippi's only multi-week, multi-genre arts festival, offering both free and ticketed events to local residents and cultural tourists. Offerins include events from across the spectrum of the arts -- music, dance, art and theatre. 

Musical offerings include classical, blues, jazz, gospel, and Broadway events. Ongoing visual art exhibits draw visitors to downtown Hattiesburg. Classical and modern ballet events bring exciting movement to the festival. Keep your appetite in check with food, glorious food, from eateries all over town. Artie Events for Families offer fun and educational opportunities across all the arts. And don't miss our late-night events to cap off a day of adventure in the Pine Belt.

HCA is supported in part by funding from the Mississippi Arts Commission, a state agency, and in part, from the National Endowment for the Arts.
