Jackson is one of 18 new sites recently announced by former Vice President Kamala Harris for stops on her national book tour.

Harris will be at the soon-to-be reopened Thalia Mara Hall on Jan. 14 to promote her memoir, “107 Days.” In the book, Harris details her personal reflections and insights of her 2024 presidential campaign. The book topped the New York Times’ bestseller list, where it remains in the top 10, and so far has sold over 600,000 copies across formats.

Harris, whose event is the first scheduled for the renovated Thalia Mara, was an unsuccessful Democratic candidate for president in 2024 after president Joe Biden decided to not seek reelection after securing the Democratic nomination.

“Jackson is honored to welcome Vice President Kamala Harris as part of her national book tour for ‘107 Days.’ Her story of perseverance, and leadership continues to inspire people across the country,” Jackson Mayor John Horhn said in a statement. “We look forward to hosting her at Thalia Mara Hall and sharing in the dialogue her visit will spark about the future of our democracy.”

Tickets go on sale at ThaliaMara.live at 10 a.m. on Friday, Dec. 12. Prices for tickets were not yet available on Wednesday. Meet & Greet tickets, which include a signed copy of the book and a photo with Harris, will be available at additional cost.

The former vice president is scheduled to reopen Thalia Mara Hall, which has been closed since August 2024 for mold removal and other issues. Various other events are scheduled for 2026, including a Bob Dylan concert on April 25.
