Your First Show at The Sanctuary Biloxi: A Guide

Heading to The Sanctuary Biloxi for the first time? This guide covers how tickets and door pricing work, when doors open, what the venue's policies say and how to make a night of it. The Sanctuary is a restored historic church at 156 Camellia St., just steps from Biloxi Beach, hosting live tribute concerts, rock shows and stand-up comedy.

Buying Tickets

Tickets are sold through the Events & Tickets page. Open an event, choose your tickets and check out. Prices vary by show: recent listings range from about $10 to $125 depending on the event and ticket type.

Presale vs. Door Price

Every event listing notes that the day-of-door price is $5 more per ticket than presale. If you know you are going, buying ahead is the simplest way to save.

Doors and Showtime

Many listings show doors at 6:00 PM and the show starting at 7:00 PM, with a note that showtimes may vary. Some events run on a different schedule. For example, the Rock The Halls Toy Drive Benefit lists doors at 1:00 PM with the show starting at 2:00 PM. Always check the time on your event page.

Tickets, Refunds and Cancellations

• All sales are final, with no refunds or exchanges.

• If an event is canceled, tickets may be refunded or honored for a rescheduled date at the venue's discretion.

Age Policy

Event listings state an age policy, and the venue notes a $5 surcharge at the door for guests under 18. Some shows are listed as all ages, such as Headbanging for Hunger VII. Because details can differ by event, check the listing or call (228) 285-1535 before bringing younger guests.

VIP Options

Select shows offer a VIP lounge limited to 40 guests, with a wristband, two private bathrooms and a private staffed bar. See our VIP lounge guide for details.
