Known as “The City With Soul,” Jackson is Mississippi’s capital and largest city. Centrally located and nestled at the crossroads of Interstates 55 and 20, Jackson is easily accessible by car, air, and rail.
Life in this city pulses with music – gospel, blues, rock, jazz, classical and everything in between – born from a tradition steeped in the arts. Do you want to see and experience the home of the blues? Stop by F. Jones Corner, where the influence of the blues pours out of the walls in the historic Farish Street district, or Hal and Mal’s for “Blue Monday,” where you might find the legendary Dorothy Moore singing “Misty Blue.”
The local cuisine is classic Southern, ranging from satisfying Soul Food to creative Southern Fusion to international fare with a Southern flair. Your favourite brands are also found among Jackson’s 300 restaurants!
