Go, America, it's your birthday...
Join us Friday, July 4, as we celebrate the birthday of the land of the free and the home of the brave at Mississippi Aquarium. Fins, fireworks and frosty beers at the Aquarium will set fourth after-hours featuring all of your favorite aquatic wonders plus a pop-up beer garden! Come hungry because you’ll also receive exclusive access to Local Food Trucks who will have their most popular dishes available for purchase on the west lawn.
