“Being nominated for USA TODAY 10Best’s Best College Sports Town is an incredible honor and a reflection of what makes Oxford so special,” said Kinney Ferris, executive director of Visit Oxford MS. “College sports are woven into the fabric of everyday life here in Oxford. From the energy on game day to the restaurants, shops and historic Square that welcome fans year-round, visitors become part of our community that celebrates Ole Miss together. We’re proud to see Oxford recognized on a national stage and invite sports fans from across the country to experience the passion, hospitality and unforgettable atmosphere that make Oxford stand out.”

Students, alumni and locals gather in the same coffee shops, bookstores, restaurants and live music venues along The Square, creating a vibrant atmosphere that extends well beyond game days. Whether visitors arrive for a game at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, a weekend on the historic Square or the acclaimed culinary and literary scene, they’ll quickly discover that Oxford’s unmistakable charm comes from the connection between Ole Miss and the locals who proudly call it home.
