The mission of the B. B. King Museum and Delta Interpretive Center, a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization, is to empower, unite and heal through music, art and education and share with the world the rich cultural heritage of the Mississippi Delta.
From the cotton fields, street corners and juke joints of the Mississippi Delta came a new kind of music – the blues. Considered by many to be the only truly indigenous American music, this form that has influenced musicians worldwide is deeply rooted in Delta soil. And so is the man who helped spread the blues as its foremost ambassador... Riley B.B. King.
The B.B. King Museum may be the most inspiring stop you’ll ever make. There’s nothing else like it in Mississippi. The Museum opened in 2008 to rave reviews and delivers an unparalleled experience. The exhibits include thousands of rare artifacts, award-winning films, computer interactives, and a story that will give your emotions a workout.
Our services for tour operators include group rates, reservation assistance, suggested itineraries, photographs, step on guides, FAM tours, and welcome bags.
