State of the City seats now available

Seats for the annual State of the City address in Biloxi are now available through the Biloxi Bay Chamber of Commerce.

Mayor A.J. Holloway will present the address during a chamber luncheon on Monday, Feb. 28 at the Beau Rivage Resort and Casino. Seating will begin at 11 a.m., and the program will begin at 11:30.

Chamber members were mailed their seats last week. Others may purchase seats — $30 each, or a table of 10 for $300 — by contacting the chamber at 435-6149 or info@biloxibaychamber.org.

The luncheon has sold out each of the past several years.
