Once a year, households across Diamondhead, Mississippi hold yard sales on the same Saturday. The Diamondhead City Wide Yard Sale runs through a community-organized Google My Map: residents register their address, the map gets published ahead of the sale, and for one day the whole city becomes a coordinated event. In 2026 it runs Saturday, October 3, generally 8 AM to dusk.
Diamondhead sits in Hancock County on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, just off I-10 between Bay St. Louis and the Louisiana state line. With 63 households confirmed on the organizer's map, it's a solid single-day turnout — and because Diamondhead's neighborhoods are built around canals and golf courses rather than a conventional grid, the map matters more than usual for finding an efficient way through.

How the city-wide sale works
Diamondhead's sale is organized at the community level rather than by City Hall: residents who want to take part register their address, and the organizer publishes the full list on a Google My Map ahead of sale day. That map is what shoppers follow — it's the only comprehensive list of who's selling.
Because Diamondhead's streets curve around canals, lagoons, and golf-course frontage, straight-line distance on a map doesn't always match driving distance on the ground. Browse the full list free, then map the smartest driving order and drive it, so the canal layout doesn't cost you extra time.
Strategy — respect the canal layout
Diamondhead's residential pattern is unusual for a citywide sale: loops and cul-de-sacs built around water and golf frontage mean a few extra turns can add real time if you don't plan ahead.
- Group by neighborhood section, not straight-line distance. Two pins that look close on the map may be on opposite sides of a canal.
- Start where sales cluster. With 63 total addresses spread across a spread-out city, a tight cluster is worth more time than chasing isolated pins.
- Go early. A single Saturday with no second day means the best finds move fast.
Diamondhead's canals and loops mean the map is doing real work here — two nearby-looking pins can be a longer drive than they appear. Plan the route, don't eyeball it.
What you'll find
Diamondhead is a Gulf Coast community built around boating, golf, and canal-front living, and the yard sales reflect it — fishing and boating gear turns up regularly alongside the usual household mix of furniture, kitchenware, tools, and kids' items. Coastal homes also tend to clear out seasonal and outdoor gear as the weather turns in October.
Expect a mix of single-household sales and larger multi-family setups, typical of a well-attended one-day community event.
Pro tips
- Plan around the canals. Diamondhead's layout isn't a grid — map your route instead of guessing distances.
- Start at opening. One day, no second chance — arrive early.
- Watch for boating and fishing gear. It turns up often in this coastal community.
- Bring small bills. Household sellers, not shops — cash keeps things moving.
