Downtown Vicksburg is poised to become a midweek destination this summer, as live music will be presented weekly starting in June.
Village Manager Jim Mallery recently told council members that plans are being finalized to feature two musical acts every Wednesday, beginning June 14.
The weekly performances are projected to continue through Aug. 16, with the exception of July 5, Mallery said. In all, the plan is to stage live a total of nine Wednesdays.
Mallery said such events have consistently had a positive impact on downtown businesses as well as the village’s reputation.
