Rankin County's 29th Annual Muscadine Jubilee is set to kick off this Saturday with good times, good food, good tunes and, of course, the Grape Stomp. The all day even, held in Pelahatchie's Muscadine Park promises a full day of fun in the perfect backdrop of small-town Mississippi charm. Therefore, we thought it important to share this information in our blog for locals and visitors so no one will miss this great event.
The Muscadine Jubilee kicks off at 10:00 a.m. with a traditional opening ceremony. Other events begin at 10:30 a.m. Musician lineup is said to include Kali Russell, Dave's Highway, Jeff Maddox, Crossin' Dixon and Neil McCoy.
Along with good music, there will also be arts and crafts booths and many games for children. Other fun activities will include a petting zoo, pony rides, inflatables, train rides and games.
Rankin County, Mississippi politicians will go toe-to-toe at noon in the traditional Grape Stomp competition. The one who makes the most grape juice by stomping a bucket of grapes barefoot will win an engraved wine cooler.
The Grape Stomp lineup will include Congressman Gregg Harper, Transportation Commissioner Dick Hall, Tax Assessor John Sullivan and State Representative Mark Baker, which sounds like an interesting combination of politicians. This just might turn out to be the most popular event of the day to attend.
The best part about the event is that it's affordable for the entire family. Children 6 and younger get in for free and everyone else gets in for only $2. The expected turnout for the event is between 3,000 and 4,000 people, making it a great opportunity to get out and meet new people.
