Askew Landing announces upcoming events in Edwards

VICKSBURG, Miss. (VDN) — Costumes, decorated campsites, a visit from the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile and a Christmas market featuring Mississippi makers are coming to Askew’s Landing RV Campground this fall.

Located at 3412 Askew Ferry Road in Edwards, the campground will host Halloween weekends October 23–25 and October 30–November 1, 2026, followed by its 4th annual Christkindlmarkt Christmas Market weekend November 13–15. Families can book a RV Site, Cabin Booking, or Tent camping stay or visit for the festivities without staying overnight.

Two Weekends of Halloween Fun

Both Halloween weekends begin Friday with activities such as Camp Store Bingo, Trivia, Community Campfire, and a Halloween movie. Saturday activities include Magic Pumpkin Seeds, Halloween crafts, trick-or-treating around the campground, a costume contest, and a community campfire.

Campers are encouraged to bring costumes and decorate their campsites for the site-decorating contest. Spooky, silly and fall-themed decorations are all welcome. The campground’s regular outdoor activities will also be available throughout both weekends.
