Neshoba County

Come to Neshoba County for a full spectrum of unforgettable activity–from the fast-paced action of the Pearl River Resort to the historic Choctaw Indian Reservation and its annual fair to the slow-paced charm of the Neshoba County Fair, “Mississippi’s Giant House Party.” The first Neshoba County Fair was held in 1889, and in 1896 when Governor McLaurin addressed the crowd, a tradition began. The Fair is now a famous forum for local, state, and national politicians.

At Pearl River Resort with its Silver Star and Golden Moon Hotels and Casinos, Dancing Rabbit Golf Club, Geyser Falls Water Theme Park, and the Beach Club Restaurant at Clearwater Key Beach, meeting attendees enjoy non-stop fun. Attractions also include award-winning cuisine in 14 restaurants and 1,074 luxurious hotel rooms.

Downtown Philadelphia’s Historic District has recently been listed on The National Register of Historic Places. The centerpiece is the charming town square and its quaint shops, distinctive antiques, and unique restaurants.

Whether you like learning about the history of the Choctaw Indian tribe, paying tribute to civil rights advocates, enjoying the old-style charm of the Williams Brothers Store, or escaping to beautiful Burnside Park, Neshoba County is a unique place you’ll definitely want to consider for your next meeting.
