If you’re getting to Oxford early, catch the Rebels take on LSU at Swayze Field on Friday, April 10. Between the tailgating, beer showers, and classic Southern hospitality, it’s a great way to soak up the Ole Miss experience before the wedding festivities begin. If you’re still in town Sunday, you can also catch the final game of the series.
The Square is the heart of Oxford. Lined with boutiques, bookstores, art galleries, bars, and restaurants, it’s the perfect place to kill some time and pop in somewhere new. Grab a coffee, do a little shopping, or hang at one of the many bars.
Take some time to explore the beautiful Ole Miss campus, known for its architecture, magnolia and oak tree-lined paths, and rich history. Check out The Grove, where football game day tailgates are held, the Lyceum, and the Walk of Champions.
