The JMARC Capital City Hamfest is the largest amateur radio convention in Mississippi. It is held in the Trademart near I-55 in Jackson. This venue provides us with a climate controlled environment to ensure attendees’ protection against the elements of the Winter months. There is a professional food sales galley inside the Trade Hall and in the Main Hallway. The Metro area offers many nearby hotel accommodations as well as casual to fine dining. There is a lot for a family to do in this area! Click here for a list of accommodations, dining, and activities for the entire family over the Capital City Hamfest weekend.
Here is a Google Map of the location with options for getting directions:
The 2027 Hamfest page for table and vendor registration along with Forum Schedules is available here.
