JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) - Legendary singer and songwriter Bob Dylan is coming to Thalia Mara Hall.
Tickets are slated to go on sale December 12 for the performance, which is slated for 8 p.m., April 25.
Dylan, a Nobel Prize winner, is one of several big names expected to perform at the municipal auditorium next year.
The Clarion-Ledger reported that rapper Young Jeezy is set to take the stage on January 26.
Thalia Mara has been closed since August 2024, when mold growth was discovered in the facility.

Former Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba announced the hall was reopening on his last day in office.
However, in August, Mayor John Horhn said Thalia Mara was not ready to reopen, saying that additional work was needed.
At the House Select Committee on Capital City Revitalization in October, the new mayor told lawmakers the 2,000-seat venue was slated to reopen by the end of the year.
