Overview

The Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame & Museum marks three decades of honoring the state's greatest athletes, coaches, and contributors — and unveils the most significant transformation in its history. The evening celebration brings together Hall of Fame inductees, longtime supporters, and the broader Jackson community to commemorate the museum's 30-year legacy and debut a $4 million renovation featuring newly enhanced exhibits, updated spaces, and interactive experiences.

Since opening on July 4, 1996, the museum has welcomed generations of visitors and preserved the stories of Mississippi legends whose impact reaches far beyond state lines. This anniversary celebration is both a look back at that legacy and a look forward at the museum's next chapter.

Guests will have the opportunity to explore the newly renovated museum alongside Hall of Fame inductees throughout the evening.
