About

Hey there! I’m Tina Wilkerson, the proud founder of Tupelo360. My journey started about four years ago when I volunteered (aka my nosiness got the best of me) to take over a community Facebook page. I loved staying in the loop with everything happening in our vibrant town, from new local businesses to the latest events.

Through the Facebook page, I met some amazing small business owners who inspired me daily. Seeing the resilience and creativity of our community, especially post-COVID, I realized we needed something more—a comprehensive event calendar that captured the essence of Tupelo. And thus, Tupelo360 was born!

Tupelo is a unique gem. We have the flair of a big city with our incredible art, music, sports, and phenomenal local cuisine. Yet, we never lose that warm, small-town spirit that makes our community special. I adore our city’s outdoor festivals and concerts—they truly bring everyone together.

When I’m not busy sourcing events for Tupelo360, you can find me indulging in my love for photography, attempting to master the art of golf and pickleball (emphasis on “attempting”), and doting on my French bulldog, Phoebe. She believes she’s a local celebrity, please don’t tell her different!

At Tupelo360, our mission is simple: to foster connections within our community by highlighting events, showcasing the incredible talent of our local musicians and artists, and supporting the growth and success of our small businesses. We want everyone to know about the fantastic recreational opportunities Tupelo has to offer, from intimate sewing classes to rocking music concerts and everything in between.

So, whether you’re a longtime resident or a curious visitor, I hope Tupelo360 helps you discover something new and exciting in our wonderful town. Let’s keep this community spirit alive and thriving together!

Don’t Stop Believing,

Tina Wilkerson
