Introducing DeSoto County Dining Week

Many venture to DeSoto County, Mississippi, for shopping, concerts or youth sports tournaments, but it’s the exceptional cuisine offered at dozens of locally owned establishments that keeps guests coming back year-round. We know you keep the locals happy (and full), too! With this in mind, we want to shine a light on the culinary scene that makes the top of the ‘Sip a foodie’s dream. Mark your calendars for Sunday, Jan. 21-Saturday Jan. 27, 2024, for the first-ever DeSoto County Dining Week. 

We want you to participate whether you have a restaurant, coffee shop or a dessert spot! Here’s what you need to know:

• What does it entail? Participants offer a special deal Jan. 21-Jan. 27 (percentage off a dish or drink, a prix fixe meal, a specially priced menu item, etc.) Identify an offer that works best for you.

• How will it be promoted? Participants will be listed on a dedicated page at VisitDeSotoCounty.com, in a blog post like this one and in an email newsletter. We will share the DeSoto County Dining Week webpage and blog post links to our social media pages, and we are exploring advertisements to help spread the word. A DeSoto County Dining Week window cling will be delivered to participating restaurants. Local media will be informed and invited to interview leaders of participating establishments. 

• How can I confirm my participation? Email murray@obsidianpr.com by Jan. 1, 2024. The sooner you contact us, the sooner your restaurant will be included in our promotions. 

• When do I need to identify my special offer? We recommend setting your special offer by Jan. 5 to ensure ample time for you to promote it. This will also give us the opportunity to include your offer in our communications. 

We look forward to spotlighting you beginning in December. Stay tuned!
