The Canton Gospel Fest Homecoming is a free gospel concert on the Historic Courthouse Square. It celebrates the diversity and rich cultural heritage of Canton and the beauty of gospel music.

This alcohol-free event takes place each July 4th on the Historic Canton Square, offering food and fun for young and old with no charge for admission.

In addition to headline artists, the Canton Gospel Fest Homecoming features regional and local acts. Local artists are featured to provide an outlet for church choirs and up-and-coming new artists.

Also during this time frame, Canton hosts the Mississippi Championship Hot Air Balloon Fest, so there is something for everyone in Canton during this festive holiday.

The Canton Gospel Fest Homecoming is sponsored by the Canton Convention & Visitors Bureau along with several local businesses, and is hosted by the Black Heritage Committee of the Canton CVB.
