BILOXI, Miss. (August 13, 2026) –EIGHT75 is still the address. Everything else has changed.
The Coast’s iconic nightlife destination gets a stunning transformation as Beau Rivage’s signature lounge and live entertainment venue reopens August 14, completely reimagined and ready for a new era of nights out.
Designed by Los Angeles-based Avenue Interior Design, the creative team behind Beau Rivage’s acclaimed seafood restaurant Coraline’s, EIGHT75 evokes the warmth and elegance of a classic Southern parlor while embracing the energy of a contemporary lounge. Deep, rich hues, luxurious fabrics, and thoughtfully layered details transport guests to an era of gracious entertaining, creating an atmosphere that is both timeless and fresh.
“The new EIGHT75 is stunning,” said Brandon Dardeau, Regional President of Operations and President & COO of Beau Rivage. “This multimillion-dollar renovation, combined with our world-class Southern hospitality, is designed to deliver the premier experiences our guests expect from Beau Rivage. We have built a venue that rivals any destination, reinforcing our commitment to attracting visitors from across the nation, while providing a beautiful new space for our most loyal guests. I look forward to seeing everyone’s reaction when they first step inside.”
EIGHT75 offers an intimate escape tucked just beyond the gaming floor. A curved façade, brass detailing, polished finishes, and a deep burgundy palette establish a refined first impression, while velvet drapery, patterned textiles, and warm lighting invite guests into a richly immersive interior with seating for 130 guests in the venue that has grown to 3,000 square feet. Ornate, detailed chinoiserie-patterned wallpaper, a European interpretation of Chinese decorative art, adorns the central pillars and the half-wall at the entrance.
Two striking design elements anchor the venue: the 41-foot marble bar and the performance stage. The expansive bar features warm wood detailing, illuminated shelving, distinctive tiger-patterned bar stools, and a linear light installation composed of globe fixtures, creating an inviting backdrop for cocktails and conversation.
The raised bandstand serves as the second focal point, framed by an oversized gilded clamshell that provides a dramatic backdrop for nightly performances. Upholstered walls carry the color palette throughout while providing sound absorption to foster conversations during live music performances.
Live bands will perform seven nights a week. Triggerproof takes the stage on the Grand Opening weekend from 8 p.m. to 1 a.m. The popular Coast cover band blends pop, rock, and hip-hop into fresh, high-energy performances that reinvent today's hits alongside classic favorites.
EIGHT75’s sophisticated new design is complemented by an exceptional selection of craft cocktails, wines, and beers, thoughtfully curated to elevate the experience. The full bar features top brands, 24 wine and 22 beer options, and eight signature cocktails, including the Blue Note, made with Ketel One Vodka, blueberry, lemon, and lavender; the Encore Espresso made with Patron Reposado Tequila, Espresso, Demerara, Banana and Vanilla Crema; the Barrel No. 875 made with Buffalo Trace Bourbon, Spiced Demerara Syrup and Angostura Bitters; and Smoke & Brass made with Sazerac Rye Whiskey, Demerara Syrup, Peychaud’s Bitters, Absinthe and Applewood Smoke.
Guests can pair their favorite cocktail or beverage with Bar Provisions shareable bites, including The Classic, house-made cheese & chive crackers, Biloxi Blonde beer nuts and gourmet olives; The Signature, mango Tajin fruit jellies and crispy pasta chips; and a Charcuterie Jar with a chef’s selection of artisan meats, cheeses, olives, nuts, and seasonal accompaniments.
“The all-new EIGHT75 invites guests into an atmosphere where Southern sophistication, modern design, handcrafted cocktails, live entertainment, and exceptional service come together to create the Coast’s premier ultra lounge experience,” said Bruce Cartwright, Director of Beverage Operations. “While walk-ins are always welcome, we are pleased to now offer advance table reservations, which can be made online at EIGHT75.”
In addition to Triggerproof every Wednesday-Saturday, EIGHT75’s August entertainment lineup will include the A+ Band and Sugar Shaker.
Performing August 16-18 and August 30-31, the A+ Band brings soul, pop, blues, rock, jazz, and more to the stage with a four-piece band led by guitarist Anderson Domingues.
Performing August 23-25, the six-piece New Orleans-based Sugar Shaker is dedicated to keeping the dance floor full and delivering an eclectic mix of Top 40, disco, hip-hop, funk, country, and R&B.
EIGHT75 will be open Monday through Thursday from 3 p.m. to 1 a.m., Friday from 3 p.m. to 2 a.m., Saturday from 12 p.m. to 2 a.m., and Sunday from 12 p.m. to 1 a.m. Live entertainment will be offered Sunday through Thursday from 7 p.m. to midnight, and Fridays and Saturdays from 8 p.m. to 1 a.m.
