Local planning guide

The holiday season in Jackson

From October's fall festivals and Halloween haunts through Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Eve, Happens.city gathers the whole season in Jackson, MS — haunted houses, markets, tree lightings, light displays, and seasonal shows — so every festive plan is in one place.

All season long

October's Halloween haunts and fall festivals, Thanksgiving-weekend season-openers, December markets and light displays, and New Year's celebrations are gathered together and kept current against local sources.

For every plan

Family light displays and trunk-or-treats, ticketed holiday concerts, and adult holiday parties are compared side by side with times, venues, and travel.

Straight from the source

Seasonal schedules change often. Each event links to an official venue or ticket page so you can confirm before you go.
