Tupelo, Mississippi, is where music and mixology hit all the right notes. From lively events that showcase the city’s soulful spirit to 15 vibrant venues serving up every genre you can imagine, it’s the ultimate spot for a getaway that’s anything but ordinary.

Sip your way through seven downtown Tupelo bars and restaurants on the Tupelo Cocktail Trail. Try the Jordan River at Amsterdam Deli, a bright and bubbly cocktail made with Titos Vodka, champagne, lemon juice, and simple syrup. Visit Nautical Whimsey for the Tupelo Martini, featuring tequila, triple sec, sweet and sour mix, and blueberry syrup. At Downunder, acoustic sets perfectly pair with The Burnout, made with bourbon, Grand Marnier, ginger syrup, and a hint of smoke from flamed orange. Download your Tupelo Cocktail Trail passport here or pick one up at any of the seven downtown locations. After completing the trail, visit the Tupelo Visitors Center to claim a free #MyTupelo cocktail shaker.
With a mix of national brands and local favorites, the Barnes Crossing District’s live music venues make for a great night out. Tupelo’s home for original live music and good mood food, check out Blue Canoe. With the largest craft beer selection in Northeast Mississippi and a delicious menu of eclectic bar food, catch regional acts on the Cathead Stage. Groove to local sounds in an intimate setting at Lone Star Schooner Bar and Grill. While the beer is ice cold, live music and a menu of burgers, tacos, and more make it the perfect recipe for a sizzling night out.
In the Jackson West neighborhood, stay in the rhythm at Romie’s Grocery, a former neighborhood grocery store. While they’re known for Tupelo’s favorite meat-and-three plates during the day, their steaks, burgers, and catfish are perfectly paired with live music on the back patio on the weekends.
