Welcome to Hattiesburg, Mississippi

Welcome!

You may not know it yet, but at your fingertips is a passport to a virtual journey. It’s a journey that will weave you in and out of places marked by the local flavor of unassuming folks who never meet a stranger and always make a friend. It’s a journey that will weave you in and out of kitchens that cook up some of the South’s finest … shops that lure you in through the invitation of a window display … and places and events steeped in a culture unique to Hattiesburg.

And when our journey through this virtual tour is complete, and you’re ready to truly experience Hattiesburg for yourself, make your first stop at the place where the welcome mat is always out and the people inside are always smiling. The Hattiesburg Visitors Center, conveniently located at the intersection of I-59 and Hwy 49, is as easy to find as the tip of your nose. Best of all, the Tourism Ambassadors, awaiting your visit there, will ensure you leave no page unturned in your visit to Hattiesburg.

So if you’re ready for a sneak peak, just follow my lead, and when we come across something I think is extra-special, I’ll let you know. After all, you’re my guest, Hattiesburg is my town and we’re growing our circle of friends one visit at a time!
