Red, White, and Blueberry Festival
The 14th annual Red, White, and Blueberry Festival kicks off this weekend in downtown Ocean Springs.
The festival is always a good time for families with live music, free ice cream, as well as all things blueberry. There will also be blueberry growers and cooking demonstrations.
Ocean Springs Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Cynthia Sutton says this event is a good excuse to get out and enjoy downtown Ocean Springs. “Each month we try to do some type of event or some type of festival in the community to generate traffic, generate revenue, and economic impact. This is what we do for the month of June and it’s the summer time. It’s blueberry season. We want everybody to shop local, eat local. This is one of those fun festivals that helps emphasize that.”
The event kicks off Saturday at 10 a.m. and goes until 2 p.m.
