Fondren's First Thursdays

June 4, 2026 @ 5:30 PM to 8:30 PM

Overview

Every first Thursday of the month, Fondren transforms into a walkable evening of live music, local food, and neighborhood energy. Restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and retailers stay open late and spill out onto the sidewalks, while vendors, musicians, and community organizations set up throughout the district.

Dogs are welcome, parking is plentiful in the surrounding blocks, and admission is free.

First Thursdays is a monthly collaboration among Fondren businesses, residents, and community partners — including Mississippi Children's Museum, which joins throughout 2026 to bring programming and outreach to the event.
