Big news first… Serengeti Springs Waterpark is OPEN to everyone this weekend. ☀️💦
If you’ve been waiting for a not-so-crowded, perfect-weather moment… this is it. Grab tickets online, save a few bucks, rent a cabana, and enjoy it before the full summer rush hits.

Now… once you’ve dried off, come see us downtown. The weather is lining up just right for a wander through the alley.

We’ve refreshed the Tiniest Park in Mississippi (yes, it really is), and new outdoor exhibits are on the way over the next couple of weeks 👀

While you’re out, make it a full Sixth Street Museum District loop:
• Stop by Smith Drug Company for a classic malt
• Visit the Osceola McCarty Museum
• Explore the African American Military History Museum
(Both museums are free, just like us)

And if you need one more reason… the Hattiesburg Zoo has new baby spider monkeys and they are absolutely worth the visit 🐒

Perfect weather. Free fun. A little bit of everything.

We’ll see you in the alley.

P.S. If you’re looking for nighttime plans, jam band legends moe. are at the Saenger Theater tonight. Doors open at 7 and the show starts at 8.
