Bubbles Up From Biloxi Box Set Music Festival 2023
The full line up of musical talent has been announced for the 8th Annual Biloxi Box Set Music Festival being held from Thursday, September 10th through Saturday, September 12th, 2026. The event will once again be held at South Beach Hotel and Suites, located at 1735 Beach Blvd in Biloxi, Mississippi. Once again, music will be enjoyed on the beach with the beautiful Mississippi Sound as a backdrop – perfect for the island vibes musical talent.
Opening up the Biloxi Box Set Music Festival 2026 on Thursday, September 10th, at 5 o’clock pm, will be Dave Freeman. This is not Dave’s first appearance at BBSMF. Dave came to us just a couple of weeks after Jimmy Buffett’s passing in 2023 and was unforgettable as he and Kirstie Krause sang “Bubbles Up”.
Dave Freeman is scheduled to perform at the 8th Annual Biloxi Box Set Music Festival, which will take place from September 10 to September 12, 2026, at the South Beach Biloxi Hotel & Suites.
