BRANDON, Miss. (WJTV) – The Brandon Amphitheater will host its 100th live concert event on Saturday, May 17.

The concert will feature Texas-based band Treaty Oak Revival and will start at 7:30 p.m.

“This milestone is a testament to the vision our city had for creating a first-class entertainment venue right here in Rankin County,” said Brandon Mayor Butch Lee. “The Brandon Amphitheater has not only brought world-class entertainment to our community, it’s driven real economic growth and made Brandon a destination city.”

The 100th show marks a major milestone for both the City of Brandon and the venue, which officially opened in 2018 and has since become a regular tour stop for major artists in a variety of genres. Over the past seven years, the amphitheater has welcomed artists such as Chris Stapleton, Imagine Dragons, Lana Del Rey, James Taylor, Kenny Chesney, and the Dave Matthews Band.

Since opening, the concert series alone has welcomed more than 85,000 people annually, and the facility also hosts large community events such as Freedom Fest, Jubilee Days, and Magic of Lights. The venue is projected to generate more than $100 million in economic activity within its first ten years.

“It has been an honor to work with the City of Brandon on the Brandon Amphitheater over the last nine years,” said Jay Wilson from Live Nation. “From its inception to now booking some of the biggest names in entertainment, we could not be more thrilled that Brandon has become a beacon for live music in Central Mississippi.”
