The Gulfport Music Festival has quickly become the jewel of music events on the Mississippi Gulf Coast! Although the Festival is just two years old, it is the largest music event on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.  Named entertainers such as The Smashing Pumpkins, Train, Maroon 5 and OneRepublic have played at the Gulfport Music Festival, bringing the City of Gulfport alive with punk, rap, rock and alternative sounds. The festival is becoming known nationally as a showcase of today’s hottest artists. In 2012, the event moved to Jones Park in Gulfport and the park received rave reviews as a wonderful music venue. Each year the event is expected to grow as even more top artists are booked. The combination of a venue right on the Gulf of Mexico, great talent and reasonable ticket prices are only three reasons you should make your plans to attend. Don’t miss out on this huge weekend music festival, held only ONCE a year, featuring headliner entertainment, food booths, and more! Check www.gulfportmusicfestival.com for schedule and tickets. Discount weekend passes may be found online prior to the day of the event.
