Since 1978, The MISSISSIPPI WATERMELON FESTIVAL has been hosted and sponsored the 3rd weekend of July by the Town of Mize Volunteer Fire Department. This year will mark the 44th anniversary of the festival. The festival is held at the Mize City Park in downtown Mize. Mize is located in the southwest corner of Smith County, along state Highways 28 and 35, amid the pines, oaks, dogwoods, and magnolias (not to mention kudzu) typical of south-central Mississippi. Make this a summer to remember by planning a trip to the MISSISSIPPI WATERMELON FESTIVAL in downtown Mize, MS. Enter our biggest watermelon contest, enjoy the entertainment, or indulge in some of the best food around. Remember, there is always all the FREE Watermelon that you can eat! There's always something to do at our festival. The 44th Annual Mississippi WATERMELON FESTIVAL is all set for the weekend of July 15th and 16th. We are entirely staffed by volunteer firefighters and their families. Phone: (601)517-3510 Email: mswatermelonfestival@gmail.com
