Here are all the big concerts scheduled for the Mississippi Gulf Coast after COVID
After a year of no-go music, the bands and national entertainers are heading back to Biloxi.
Pre-sale tickets to see rapper Kevin Gates go on sale Wednesday, June 8, for his KHAZA Tour that kicks off June 19 in Orlando and brings him to the Coast Coliseum in Biloxi on Oct. 29.
Venue pre-sales to see the Louisiana artist in person begin Thursday at 10 a.m. local and general ticket sales are available Friday at 10 a.m. local through Ticketmaster.
What was supposed to be a busy lineup of performers in 2020 was canceled by the pandemic starting in mid-March and continuing for more than a year.
Several of those artists, such as KISS, Reba, Chris Stapleton and MercyMe are back on the schedule.
