Celebrate Big at Greenwood’s
Stars & Stripes Festival – June 26!
Greenwood is bringing the heat this summer for one of the biggest nights of the year—the Stars & Stripes Festival. It’s back on Thursday, June 26 and it’s going to be electric. From dazzling fireworks to a riverfront boat parade and a headline performance by Chapel Hart, this is your invitation to kick off summer Delta-style.
Chapel Hart Takes the Stage
Get ready to be blown away by Chapel Hart, the country trio lighting up stages across the globe. Made up of sisters Danica and Devynn Hart and their cousin Trea Swindle, this powerhouse group stole the spotlight on America’s Got Talent with their bold harmonies and Southern spirit. After earning the coveted Group Golden Buzzer and praise from country legends like Dolly Parton, Tanya Tucker, and Darius Rucker, they’re bringing their chart-climbing energy straight to Greenwood.
What to Expect at the Festival
The fun kicks off at 7 p.m. along the Yazoo River between Greenwood’s two downtown bridges. This scenic spot transforms into a vibrant hub filled with live music, glowing boats, and patriotic energy.
- Live music all night
- A heartfelt veterans tribute
- The crowd-favorite boat parade with red, white, and blue lights
- A spectacular fireworks show from Veterans Bridge
- Games, inflatables, and a splash pad for the kids
Food, Family, Fireworks
