Entertainment:
Bay Fest began in 1991 as a celebration at the end of the Desert Storm conflict to recognize local citizens and other Mississippians serving in the armed forces.
The first festival was a success and now in its twentieth year, the event has matured into a first-class, four-day festival for the purpose of showcasing the community to tourists, businesses and industry and building self-esteem and pride among local citizens.

Everyone loves this annual event whether watching or participating!
