We could not verify a Mississippi events calendar, so this page lists verified schedule notes: the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum is free every Sunday, and news reports say Jackson voters will decide on November 3, 2026 whether to raise the tourism and convention tax. Dates change, so confirm with organizers.
